Beautiful and surprisingly emotional experimental film from ANTIVJ artist Xavier Chassaing evoking an impossibly massive yet tightly choreographed site-specific installation piece. A fully-CG film co-produced by Mathematic, “Dry Lights” expands on a physical sound and light installation at the 2013 Proyecta Festival set in the ethnobotanical garden in Oaxaca, Mexico.

Xavier Chassaing: “Meditation and self-hypnosis are central to my work. When working through an idea, it is like trying to sleep when you have a fever: the same dream or nightmare repeats again and again, but eventually a lot comes from that; our dreams encompass visions and concepts.”
