Yves Möhrle – BIPEDIE(BOO)
BIPEDIE(BOO) is a video installation that combines humour and seriousness. Inspired by rockfalls in Switzerland, a modern myth has been created. A personification of rockfalls, embodying the incomprehensible and inexplicable. The videos show a figure walking through the mountains and throwing stones down the slope. Hypocritically, she lectures us. In a naïve hope that small gestures can bring about big changes, the nostalgic aesthetic of the project underlines the link between past and present and raises the question of our management of natural risks. Do our actions really bring progress or do they fight symptoms? What is our role in the Anthropocene? Do our actions influence nature and cause stones to fall?
