“Whether auditory or visual, the figure of the bird is re-encoded, reinterpreted, and simulated here, becoming a poetic object that viewers can infuse with their own imagination.”
Réencodages brings together installation and video works that evoke the world of birds in a contemporary and experimental manner. Each piece incorporates a fragment of nature in its own way, highlighting the gap between the real and its reproduction, the natural and the constructed. Using modern technical means, they explore this fictional space with humor: interactive electronic modules suggest strange birds, a mechanical system of wooden gears mimics the chirping of sparrows, and human voices attempt translation.
