Taking formal cues from the optical illusions and landscapes of pre-cinematic entertainment, Christine Rebet explores how these devices find echoes in contemporary politics and media. While her practice is anchored in drawing, it extends to installation, performance, and animation, where she addresses historical trauma through personal reinterpretation. Her colorful, fluid style unravels troubling apparitions, weaving together fantasy and critique.
