Several of the exhibition’s themes coalesce in Pierre Huyghe’s riveting nineteen-minute video Untitled (Human Mask) (2014): interspecies relationships, extreme weather, and extinction. Huyghe (b. 1962) sets his moving-image work in post-apocalyptic Fukushima, Japan, after the nuclear disaster of 2011, which occurred in the wake of a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and subsequent tsunami that surged over the seawall and flooded nuclear reactors. After panning remnants of the devastated city, the camera enters a small, abandoned restaurant, where a mysterious creature remains with a cat.
This work is a part of the exhibition INTO THE TIME HORIZON.
