When its scientific mission comes to an end, a satellite in charge of monitoring climate change deorbits to a devastated Earth. In this mad race for survival, it meets a guide operating for Pelerin, an apocalypse tourism agency that offers survivors expeditions to thrilling places.
In this speculative tale, data collection, i.e. the activity of the satellite, meets the synthetic image which is the manipulation of digital data. The Paradise project has its source in this interaction between the subject and the material that sustains it.
Born in Aubervilliers in 1992. His work, presented at the Rencontres d'Arles in 2021, is marked by the question of safeguarding. The safeguarding of the environment but also that of data, the essential support of our digital ecosystem. His research is impregnated with references to science or science-fiction, and to ecology. Whether through the use of film photography, video or computer generated images, his work is developed through successive experiments and hybridizations in order to produce an ambiguous prospective questioning the maintenance of collective belief structures that guarantee our perception of reality.
CursusAprès un master en journalisme à Sciences Po Strasbourg, je travaille pendant plus d’un an dans la production de films documentaires. Mon travail photographique me pousse alors à reprendre des études et à intégrer le master photographie de l’ENS Louis Lumière ; j’y arrive avec une pratique largement documentaire et marquée par la sérialité.
Cette pratique évolue avec la découverte de la 3D et mon travail s’inscrit désormais dans des recherches autour de la rencontre entre l’analogique et le numérique. Au travers d’une quête de matérialité dans la création d’images de synthèse, je développe un regard poétique qui mêle l’imaginaire et le réel.
