"Blue Dance" is part of "Body Limits", series of works that use performative videos chosen on the Internet.
The multiplication of bodies and the transformations carried out on colors and speed turn these videos into video artworks where the border between figuration and abstraction is called into question.
The original soundtracks have been preserved. Slowed down to the same speed as the image and enriched by several effects, they contribute to the aesthetics of these détournements.
The body, pushed to its limits, is transcended to give life to new representations of physical activity.
Jean-Michel Rolland is a French artist born in 1972.
A long time a musician and a painter, he brings together his two passions - the sound and the image - in digital arts since 2010.
Through video art works, generative art, audiovisual performances and interactive installations, he questions the temporality, a genuine fourth dimension inherent to moving image, as well as the duality between his two favorite mediums, the sound and the visual.
His formal research is guided by the desire to reveal the intrinsic nature of our perceptual environment and to twist it to better give new realities to the world around us.
His works, always very experimental, are a reflection of the sometimes unexpected internal world of their author and are however the object of an important diffusion abroad. Several have been rewarded for their originality, by United Nations University (Dresden, Germany), Digital Graffiti in Miami (USA), Multimatograf (Russia), dokumentART (Germany and Poland), the University of North Carolina (USA), Festival do Minuto (Brazil), Artaq (France), ArchiShorts (Canada) and The International Video Art Review (Poland).
