For his solo exhibition The Trilogy of Terror (and its newborns) at One Minute Space, Louis-Philippe Scoufaras will exhibit video works from The Trilogy of Terror, 2014-2016 and a group of sculptures Omphalos, 2023. All titled the same and hewn from metamorphic marble, these sculptures mark the culmination of the trilogy. Sleek and ghostly they exude otherworldly elegance seemingly suspended in a state of neutral grace.The Trilogy of Terror is composed of — Panic, 2014, N, 2016, and Omphalos, 2016.
All three video works reinterpret events drawn from Greek mythology through sexuality, choreographed performance, historically charged landscape, and incidental music choice and manipulations.

The exhibition brings together both old and new works and unveils the interrelationships that exist between them. Each part of The Trilogy of Terror will be sequentially screened throughout the exhibition, with an opening every Saturday.
This exhibition concludes the One Minutes Space program for the year 2023, with the theme of 'chronopolitics'.

Louis-Philippe Scoufaras (*1981) was born in Montreal, Canada. He currently lives and works in Athens, Greece. His work articulates a relationship between sound composition and formal representation, with a focus on time and its possible transformation in monumental terms. Together with Sarah Ancelle Schönfeld, Scoufaras founded PPKK in 2016 in Berlin. PPKK is an artist duo, that primarily engages with site-specific contexts and participatory practices, involving sound
installations and immersive sensorial experiences.
