Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.This striking contemporary artwork features a vibrant, psychedelic color palette with bold, abstract shapes and forms. The central figure appears to be a nude human body partially obscured by the fantastical, organic elements surrounding it, creating a surreal and dreamlike atmosphere. The artist has employed a range of unconventional techniques, blending photography with expressive, almost biomorphic painted elements, to present a visually captivating and thought-provoking composition. The work seems to explore themes of the human form, nature, and the subconscious, inviting the viewer to ponder the artist's intentions and the deeper symbolic meaning behind this evocative and visually arresting piece. ...

1992 , FrenchMarilou Poncin lives and works in Paris. As a visual artist, she studied at the Beaux Arts de Lyon, the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam, and ENSAD Paris. Her work explores our fantasies in their encounter with new technologies. Her projects feature camgirls, avatars, love dolls, and influencers: these predominantly female figures populate the digital imagination. Each of the phantasmagorical worlds she explores reveals our individual and collective relationships with the societies in which we live, encompassing tastes, desires, lacks, and prejudices. Manipulating video installations, photography, painting, and ceramics, her works intersect multiple formats and mediums.

Launched in 2015 with the award from the Inrocks Lab (new video creation), her work was subsequently exhibited at Espace Témoin (Geneva), Frac Île-de-France, La Villette, Les Magasins Généraux, La Gaîté Lyrique, the Ricoh Art Gallery in Tokyo, and at festivals such as the Créteil International Women’s Film Festival and Videoformes in Clermont-Ferrand. In 2022, she was shortlisted for the SAM Prize for Contemporary Art and received funding from the Fondation des Artistes for her video installation project «Liquid love is full of ghosts.» She also designed a multimedia installation for the CAC Passerelle Brest, which she extended to the MAC Lyon. ...
