worse, I am an animal I don't know.
:33:06
And here's Rembrandt's
self-portrait,

:33:10
but it's just the same in fact,
always a self-portrait.

:33:19
Maurice Utrillo's
:33:21
we saw in a very small museum
:33:25
in the former City Hall of Sannois.
:33:29
We were going
:33:31
to film nearby, at Herve's,
alias VR99.

:33:35
In the year 2000,
his alias will be VR2000.

:33:39
'Loading up'
:33:41
means retrieving
heavy objects people get rid of.

:33:47
To do so,
:33:48
town councils and city halls provide
:33:53
small maps such as this one.
:33:56
It shows all the streets,
the districts and the days

:34:00
on which one can go
and pick them up.

:34:06
I think the maps show
where to dump things rather.

:34:11
Yes, right, well,
:34:13
I read the map my own way because
:34:17
that's where I find my raw material.
:34:21
I am, among other things,
a painter and a retriever.

:34:26
I prefer night time,
:34:29
and because I go by bike,
I can only carry small things home.

:34:36
It'll be easier if I show you.
:34:40
I make images
from salvaged material,

:34:44
frames from wood,
:34:46
I use food packages, slates,
:34:50
and then I also recycle
:34:53
my own packets of cigarette paper,
:34:58
and what's good about these objects
