A question of perspective, 1958 - 1992. In an elliptical train of fragmentary and associative imagery, Discours des comètes explores the difficulty sometimes experienced in the act of distinguishing dreams from memory; this ambiguity is called troubled vision. Images pass, comets: small and luminous bodies traced onscreen; luminous, glorious, celestial orbs, firing deep impressions. Pregnant memories, boats, men, virtual drowning, anguished dreams. Now, as then, dream and memory give their accounts.
