9 Intervals
9 Intervals is a multi-episode digital film by Aurélien Froment which uses the common chair and the seated position of the cinema viewer as a way of addressing the relationship between design and body, viewer and image. The work stands between genres and is encyclopaedic in content, parodic in tone and minimalist in form.
