Memorsion
[Text available only in English] ** Memorsion is a 7 minutes non linear loop.**

The installation greets the public with videos of large structures floating and rotating, accompanied by a surround sound environment made up of distorted metallic noises.

Once spectators step inside this unusual immersive environment, the action starts. Dramatic music begins alongside a series of randomly selected videos. These videos shape the installation while displaying rudimentary architectural elements such as large columns, beams and trusses.

Viewers visit abandoned warehouses, graffiti-covered walls, concrete bridges or crumbling buildings. Images are fragmented into short sequences, flickering, and digitally transformed using 2D and 3D techniques. The intent is to overstimulate the visual awareness with incomplete pictures, breaking down the linearity of time and consequently triggering personal interpretations.
