Timothée Engasser

It starts with sand, the basics of glass and con­crete, and unfolds into a med­i­ta­tion on urban infra­struc­ture, build­ings and sur­faces. Sur­re­al and sen­so­ry images are con­fronting us with a city´s com­po­nents. Although TENACE does not dis­play any life, it still talks about urban societies.

A calm cam­er­a­work and unique rhythm invite us to reflect upon our embed­ded­ness in the mate­ri­al­i­ty of cities and its impact on human experience.

When the city is ever final­ly built, cleared and cleansed of all forms of dis­tur­bance, what will be left?
