Conatus: La Nuit du Danseur, or in English, Conatus: The Night of the Dancer, is an intriguing video by French multi-media artist Boris Achour. A tap dancer wearing a luminous mask moves alone by night through the exhibition The Power of Art at the Grand Palais in Paris. This is part of Achour’s Conatus series, which explores the driving force or effort of a thing to continue to exist and enhance itself, known as conatus. Fascinating!
