Bio-Biblion is the library of life. There are medical books, personnal objects mixed whith eletronical screens. One slide image appears and disappears on the wall. Just like memories which come and go. And one bowl with blood moving in the middle of the room is to me like an offering to life. The red color made by the light on the TV screen, like immaterial blood, by the vibration of electrons boils feverishly just like human blood. A red canvas with the pigment attached to the easel isn't as symbolically close to life. The other screen shows a flash: the father's picture, a photograph-frozen life paradigm, dead moment of a time that will not come back- that, on being animated eletronicaly, produces a slight vibration, imminence of a vital sign. In the thirth screen, the pages of the book are turned by somebody that is absent from who that we hear the noice of the respiration and of the heart.
