often, you'd like to say “casual”,
or even “comfy” (you see)
but this time,
exceptionally
(we should take advantage of these situations
(“for real, this is not
the sky yet!”)),
it could be “failure”;
an authorized and desired one - since there is no danger here
it’s tough to expect anything
when
it’s your first time
(you know)
maybe you will have trouble
finding your body position
because
even on the ground
we're only surviving
but!
other speeds (the one of light apparently),
other accumulations
and flatness
will come relieve you
(as the Landscape always does)
beside that, there will be
Chinese tea
and a couple of planes
(as usual)
How you could have become a B.A.S.E jumper is a conference, performed by Maxime Bichon, on sharing the historical and aesthetic context of free falling practices. Along with documents, objects and art pieces, the first elements from this research will be gradually deployed in the exhibition space.
The project is supported by the Centre National des Arts Plastiques (support for an artistic research 2014).
