Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This artwork features a captivating sculptural frame constructed with white, organic forms that resemble coral or bone. The frame encases an image depicting an abstract, distorted human figure in a dynamic, contorted pose against a vibrant yellow background. The sculptural elements surrounding the central image create a sense of enclosure and tension, drawing the viewer's attention to the visceral, almost unsettling subject matter. The overall composition and technique suggest an exploration of the human form, corporeal vulnerability, and the interplay between the natural and the constructed. The artist's intention may be to prompt contemplation on the human condition and our relationship with the physical world. ...

Artist

Marilou Poncin

1992 , French

Marilou 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. Through the enlargement and accumulation of images, the artist reduces the distance between her subjects and the viewers, thereby offering them a tactile experience of the images and bodies. 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. ...
