Mécaniques Discursives is like a parenthesis between two epochs: Gutenberg’s and Big Data’s.

By contrasting the oldest form of image reproduction (woodcutting) with the most recent digital technologies, the installation straddles centuries and contracts time.

The book Mécaniques Discursives retraces and bears witness to 10 years of artistic practice dedicated to provoking bewilderment, offering a pause, a breath. A series of original creations using augmented reality enriches the book, extending the audience experience and the artistic gesture in a playful manner.
