Mahine Rouhi
"Dirty" images. Super8. Landscapes and delicious abstractions. Images shot in 1997 by Mahine ROUHI, framed like a photographer would do and hand-processed in an improvised lab "Le Métronome" (Marseille). Blow-up in l'Abominable, in 16mm, in 2006.

"A hand-painted film by Mahine ROUHI made using blades of grass, stones, a buzzard's feather and Chinese ink. The film was then printed and modified with an optical printer during a residency at MIRE's workspace (Nantes)." -Olivier FOUCHARD "A big sheet to protect the table, some stones, a bird's feather and a variety of foliages – Chinese ink - to dip, put down, grate, remove, go over it again and to let it dry." - Mahine ROUHI

Mahine Rouhi, Olivier Fouchard
"A form emerging from the cinematographic material paces mountain trails. Singular irruption that disappears and blends into nature and its representation. There is no more separation, or so little, between being and the world, yet irreconcilable. The voice is tense, it becomes this arc between nature and the character that seems to bring back to the surface of the screen cinematic flashes forever forgotten. The film of Mahine ROUHI convokes other times which inscribe the transition from one state (psychic, physical) to another. These changes occur at different speeds, on different emulsions according to various treatments. The plasticity that results is not the least quality of this film that revives the mythopoetic cinema. " Yann BEAUVAIS .
