“The Book of Thirst” is an installation environment composed of three 16mm projections converging to a picture which evokes a theatre of memory. The core of the work is made of the subtleties that arose from our interest in thinking about the relation between thirst and curiosity as vital instincts.

Three projections compose a central folding screen, displaying sun dried fish, squid and octopuses slowly rotating in an hypnotic movement. “Dionysus” brings together a series of animated photographs of people drinking or in moments of elation, in opposition to images of captive animals and masked figures, connected through free associations and formal analogies. Finally “Imps”, is centred on a journal which is filled with drawings of demons in different poses, alluding to these transgressive figures as beacons of human curiosity.
