Situation Plastique III 1973

Directed by Kim Soungui

This work documents the installation project Situation Plastic III, presented as part of Octobre in Bordeaux, a festival organized by the city of Bordeaux, France. The installation unfolded in three stages on the outskirts of Bordeaux, where the sea and a lake meet. In the first stage, the installed objects remained underwater for one month. In the second, they floated on the surface of the water for a day. In the third, they were released and allowed to rise into the sky. Situation Plastic III can thus be understood as a collaboration between the installed objects, nature, and the participants. The event was filmed with a 16mm camera.
