Présentation

Conceived initially in 2019, this installation has as its theme the disintegration to come and “collapsology”, the changes and alterations of our epoch, and an “end of the World” which will be the start of another. This series brings together images of varying natures: archive material, photojournalism, staging, etc. In this way the installation hopes to raise the question of the use of images and their impact, create a strange and timeless atmosphere, sometimes hard and brutal, but also full of positive resonances, of vivacity and the possibilities of change. The images should be seen as a vibration, a hesitation, a rustling of reality.

The exhibition is composed of three parts: The collapse, The rupture, The metamorphosis.
