Art of governing
video installation
The idea of my installation connected with a mechanism of power, by French philosopher Paul-Michel Faucault ,that regulates thoughts and behavior of social actors through subtle means.According to his concept , governmentality is the "art of governing", not simply at the level of state politics,as we generally think of it , but the governing of wide array of objects and persons such as entire populations at the most abstract level and one`s own desires and thoughts at a more micro level.
Unlike disciplinary power aimed at the training of individual bodies, the management of populations relied on " biopower", understood as the policies and procedures that manage birth, deaths, reproduction, health and illness within the larger social body.
