LA VAGUE / THE WAVE (2022)
HD video, 16:9, black and white, no sound, 5 min., Portugal/France
Commission: Portugal’s Official Representation at the France-Portugal Season
Production: Dupla Cena
Coproduction: Lamaland, Screen

La Vague projects a giant wave on the facade of a municipal building in Paris – Hôtel de Ville. The magnitude of the dimension and movement of the wave is depicted by the drone.
Through a bird’s-eye view, we see the moment where the sea in Nazaré meets the earth.
The project was developed under the frame of a commission France–Portugal Season, held simultaneously in the two countries between mid–February 2022 and October 2022, which symbolically made the link between the rotating Presidency of the European Union exercised by Portugal and France.
