Catching Shadows (collaboration with Vincent Dubois)

The Genevan artist-sculptor Vincent Du Bois has been in residency in my laboratory since November 2018.

Three marble sculptures made during this residency will be presented at the Fondation de l'Hermitage as part of the exhibition "Shadows", June 28th – October 27th 2019. The sculptures, entitled "Catching Shadows" will manipulate the normal perspective view of a common object, thus initially preventing the viewer from immediately recognizing it for what it stands for: “un trompe-l'oeil”.
