Overview

Basin of Attraction

Basin of Attraction black and white produced in computer-generated image, presents itself as a fake wild-life documentary. By adopting the point of view of objects, by infusing them with a dose of desire, by giving them a semblance of soul, the artist reconsiders the border between the living and the non-living.
