Entelechia Obscura

2021
Single-channel video, sound, 4m

Entelechy is the Aristotelian term used to indicate the inner purpose inherent in every being or reality, a kind of state of perfection of something that has achieved the purpose for which it was predisposed.
An eternal and ideal principle, entelechy is in a constant dialectical relationship with the material conditions, bodies and worlds, that confront it.

A work by APOTROPIA
Performed by Antonella Mignone
