justice wheel
2022, Valais, CH. - mixed media (medium-length movie (50’59’’, 4:3, color), texts and images on web support)

A wacky and colorful character named Justice Wheel, a kind of killer-avenger, goes on a man-hunt in the Swiss mountains, riding a bike. The chase is entirely related, while the events take place in real life, on social networks with tweets, text, discussions, pictures and vlogs by the main character.

Justice Wheel tells a disturbing and anticipatory reality: the inexorable backlash of the ravages produced by humans on their environment, emerging in the form of a calamity as natural as it is societal (man hunting man). Justice Wheel is a «trashy» ecological fable playing with the codes and tools of contemporary storytelling: the self-staging of our lives, lost between reality and fiction.

This project was made in a performative approach, on a 1:1 scale: for more than a month, I embodied the character of Justice Wheel, who existed physically and on the web.

thanks to Li Chaolin for the photographs of the coward and Virgile Tinarrage for the original soundtrack.
