Topomovies - Marey on the Rocks
2009-2010
3D shapes are covered with moving images. A virtual camera offers spectators an exploration of these structures. The camera is programmed to never offer the same route.
In these mobile architectures where the walls are made up of animated photographs taken from film sequences, the linearity of the temporal medium that is cinema appears spatialized and blurred.
Each topological form is an archive which unfolds incessantly over time and the consultation of which constitutes for the spectator an always singular event. These archives are mental sculptures whose drawings offer multiple memory accesses.
