Silent letter is divided into six monitors. Five of them present a video sequence in which lines of sharing, contours, observation, positioning (1 x n) in the landscape, urban space, and the artist studio, are introduced. Each video, inscribed with a date, delivers the story of a foreign observer. This story is subtitled on a black screen. The colour black becomes, for a moment, a sequence of still and/or moving images, before reappearing as a story again. On the 6th monitor a series of quotations are running across the screen, raising the question of line and boundary.
