Raffael Bader, Between Silent Islands , 2022
"The latter had seen his videos broadcast in 2012 at the Palais de Tokyo (which then presented him as "one of the most promising Croatian artists of his generation"), then in 2018 at the Jeu de Paume, and shows here a collage work which pursues its reflections around political power and language. Including a very beautiful portrait from 2017, a black and white face with eyes closed but made up to appear open, the mouth barred with a flood of letters and a serpent's tongue... Stunning image of talkative somnambulism."
