Summary :
An epitaph to our mothers in the form of 4 MoTiMs
In "motim" there is mot (word), image (picture) and motif (pattern)
there is the sound of one's voice, the humming of a fly,
there is the portrait, the exorcism of absence,
there is what leads to movement, what leads to excitement,
there is what is mute, the ghost, the reason to act.
A motim it is a digital attracting device which does not merely connect worlds by amalgamating spaces and times, it is also a powerful engine of deconstruction because it keeps conjugating "I/You hear/see/read" or "I/You/oneself" with wide open eyes, wide open ears, with one's neck twisted. A tribute to our mothers.
