Endless Ends, 2009
Video
Although the video Endless Ends may at first seem tinged with nostalgia and melancholy, it may also be regarded as a mantra calling for renewal. The end—that of a film or an era, a voyage or love affair—is not necessarily absolute, but perhaps a stepping stone toward a new beginning.
Manif d’art would like to thank GM Développement, SDC St-Roch, and the Café-Rencontre du centre-ville.
