ALONE IN THE CROWD

Water and glass, liquid and solid, white and transparent, various sizes. Alone in the Crowd is looking for a kind of form in order to question the terms that designate crowds. The attempts to define society, people, multitude (Hardt and Negri), nation refer to homogeneous and/or heterogeneous groups of people. What does singularity and subjectivity of the individual mean in these terms? When is a group of people a society, nation, people or, on the contrary, a multitude?
This work attempts to establish a relation between polyphony and singularity, independence and solitude, the dominant and non-dominant by using the sound of anise drops that fall into the water loudly and quietly, disruptively and meditatively, collectively and separated, together and alone, and that color the water white and produce a milky level of color.
