Sebastian Díaz Morales: The Lost Object

The Lost Object is the final video in a trilogy that examines the complex mechanisms of how we perceive the constructed nature of reality - and how this construction is performed, both in the realm our imagination and the one of film. As curator, Cuauhtémoc Medina notes in a recent monograph dedicated to Diaz Morales’ work, the artist approaches film as a factory of simulacra, a conceptual thread that carries throughout his trilogy, which began with Insight (2012) and was followed by Suspension (2014).
