The multi-formed translucence of a bubble exhibits the world that contains it and is contained by it. The bubble that never bursts is a metaphor of the continuity of things.

The Tenant follows the trajectory of a soap bubble as it floats through the empty rooms of a house under renovation. The bubble never bursts as it drifts from one room to the next in a permanent state of suspension.

After the Brazilian carnival, in the melancholy aftermath of Ash Wednesday, the ants begin their own profane, multicolored feast to the rhythm of matchbox samba.
