The image of our time is the one that is no longer painted on stretched canvases, but on electronic screens that we look at every day. Facing with these retro/self-lit pictures, the image is not the receptacle of light, but it is light itself. The flat screen of the living room is a rectangular source of light as intriguing as it is cold. Large scale productions, objects of covetousness, these state-of-the-art technologies become the source of a modulable 2.0 light, in high definition and anti-aliased. Supporting images that we swipe every day, these tools become – for our eyes – the source of stories to watch. But what if for once, we did not seek to display but to enlighten the viewer?
