The exhibition brings together a body of work by Naomi Heinrich, fleuryfontaine and Quentin L'Helgoualc'h during their residency at the Chai Saint Raphaël.

Throughout the summer, the artists shared research and practices centred on the exploration of digital territories. These virtual incursions constitute tools for augmenting a charred reality, in which violent bodies or dependent subjects evolve.

fleuryfontaine

fleuryfontaine is a duo of artists working on the place that each and every one of us occupies in the neo-liberal, artificial and secure environments that shape our behaviour, our bodies and our relationship with the world and with others. Their work takes the form of installations, sculptures, performances, toy videos, films and digitally generated images.

Naomi Heinrich

By correlating photography, video, 3D images, sculpture and space in her installations, Naomi Heinrich creates devices that create a landscape that is both concrete and virtual. She questions our situation as individuals circulating within hybrid environments that oscillate between construction and destruction, between building sites and ruins. In this in-between state, her work bears witness to transitory states.

Quentin L'helgoualc'h

Quentin L'helgoualc'h is a visual artist and video maker. His work involves a repetitive dialogue between the mediums of photography, drawing, sculpture and film, where relationships of scale and friction between the perception of the real and the imaginary come into play.

By making the production process visible, he proposes to rethink the boundaries between these forms. Through a number of exhibitions and residencies, his work is part of a dynamic exploration of spaces.

This exhibition is supported by the Ville de Sète, the DRAC Occitanie and the Région Occitanie.

We would like to thank the Chapelle du Quartier Haut and the École des Beaux-arts de Sète for hosting the exhibition.
