After\u00a0a stage of immateriality, the digital image becomes virtual and it is\u00a0at this very moment that it\u00a0becomes erotic \u2013 it is invested with\u00a0desire \u2013 before taking another form. One must understand that the\u00a0images thus produced do not come from the void; they keep traces of\u00a0former shapes. They maintain the\u00a0architecture of pre-existing shapes,\u00a0of referents, however forgotten they may be.<\/p>\n
They are\u00a0memories of a primitive visual reality.<\/p>\n
The artist uses\u00a0non-continuous materials (straps, micro perforated plates) and thus\u00a0masks as much as he\u00a0reveals. He puts an end to the linearity of the\u00a0gaze; he disturbs its trajectory. Indeed besides its plastic\u00a0properties of fragmentation and dispersion, the plate acts as a\u00a0filter which lets only one part of the image\u00a0go through, for it\u00a0divides it and selects what is visible in random fashion therefore\u00a0creating surprises and\u00a0unexpected decoupages. Placed between the\u00a0image and the eye of the spectator, the plate acts as a\u00a0kind of\u00a0scanning process which blocks any realistic attempt at\u00a0identification. The plate can be said to\u00a0intrigue, to plot and thus\u00a0it forces the spectator to interrogate the meaning of his or her\u00a0gaze, and\u00a0questions what it steals, what it tears away from the dark\u00a0side.<\/p>\n
