WhiteNight


The white foam sculpture above was designed and created by Michel Blazy (born Mexico 1966, lives and works in Paris), for WhiteNight and was installed and presented at the National Gallery of Victoria for one night. 

Blazy has a long history with working with organic materials and is interested in exploring the beauty of decay and the poetic possibilities of the passing of time as these materials are allowed to deteriorate over the course of an exhibition.

According to Balzy, "there is nothing disgusting about it, at all, its just death meeting life.


I decided to participate in the WhiteNight Film Screen Test at ACMI by performing a Monologue for Breakfast at Tiffany's. It was part of a contemporary interactive art performance and heaps of fun. Even though the outcome was rather embarrassing...
