The desire for life

There is no harmonious future without an enlightened future. Our project, by plunging into the history of the universe, makes it possible to reassess the central role of humanity in cosmic emergence. In filigree, if we go back in time, it is because sciences and technologies have always produced more knowledge, always more understanding. We are the most advanced known product in the history of the universe and the promise of its future, despite the now permanent risk of its destruction. Without reflexive intelligence, the universe would be reduced to a silent mass of matter and energy.

At a time when humanity seems to be facing a possible existential threat, we are creating a poetic work that, we hope, awakens new perspectives on the stakes of a possible disappearance of the human species. Fossils questions the purpose of the universe. We explore its history in 7 questions. Is what we perceive of the universe a trajectory towards ever greater sophistication, from the Big Bang to the emergence of the human species? The 13.8 billion years from which we originate are scattered with points of amazement. The more we contemplate the universe, the more belief fades before knowledge. The more explanations we discover, the more questions arise. We find ourselves in a maelstrom of precision that leads us further away from the 'why.'

Fossils is the second installment of our trilogy Hominines, which we initiated in 2021. For each stage of the project's development, we will employ the same creative process: 7 photographs selected from our Entries into Matter repertoire. For Fossils, we drew from the Asphalts series. This collection immerses us in the Paris metro, where imprints, shapes, and marks constitute the substance of its history. We use this particular space-time as a metaphor for the development of the universe.

Ultimately, this results in an exhibition of 7 photographs with augmented reality that allows the viewer to access the video-poems they contain, along with the screening of a video mural on a 7 x 2 m screen. Over a 20-minute loop, the viewer will journey through the evolution of the universe in 7 key points. Also, with Image within the image, the viewer will access augmented reality inserts that traverse the mural.
