Michel Lorand (1961) is a visual artist based in Brussels. His films and installations are most often concerned with the temporal relationship between music and moving images. Time is a sensory element that reveals an unexpected reality: the eye listens and the ear sees. By choosing the performative aspect of musical composition, we are carried toward a movement outside the visual field, found in duration and waiting, in memory and oblivion.
His films and installations have been included in international events, such as the Venice Biennale, the International Film Festival Rotterdam, the Kurzfilm Festival Hamburg, the Biennale de l’Image en Mouvement at the MAMCO in Geneva, the Bienal de Video y Artes Mediales in Santiago de Chile, the International Video Art Biennial in Tel Aviv, as well as in institutions such as the Museo Reina Sofia in Madrid, and in Brussels, the WIELS, argos centre for audiovisual arts, the MIM (Musical Instruments Museum), and the Royal Film Archive of Belgium – CINEMATEK.
