Creations on the Border. Sylvie Marchand: AmeXica sKin
Abstract
This article describes the origins and development of the video installation AmeXica sKin, performed by the multimedia artist and ethnologist Sylvie Marchand with Gigacircus art collective. AmeXica sKin is a work that emerges from the experience of Sylvie Marchand and Lionel Camburet on the border between Mexico and the United States during different stays between 2006 and 2008. With the registered memory of their experience they developed the interactive multimedia installation AmeXica sKin, an “international dialogic artwork” The video installation has been exhibited at various cultural centres in France and it is expected in other countries of Europe and AmericaDownloads
