Opening: Wednesday, November 5, 6–9 p.m.
Curator: Maëlle Dault
Elouan Le Bars was born in 1998 in Douarnenez. He lives and works in Paris.
After graduating with an engineering degree from the University of Technology of Compiègne in 2021, Elouan Le Bars enrolled at the École Nationale Supérieure d’Arts de Cergy, from which he graduated in 2024. His work explores the logic of simulation specific to digital environments, the speculative and interactive potential of video games, and the changes in the world of work and their managerial corollaries. His films, shot in live action or using 3D modeling, are developed from documentary materials (testimonials, interviews, digital artifacts, found objects, etc.). They are often integrated into immersive installations in which everyday objects symbolize the power dynamics at play in spaces such as museums, offices, or even rage rooms. Through this back-and-forth between virtual and physical spaces, Elouan Le Bars invents performative modalities in a register where strangeness blurs boundaries, creating fictional spaces that tend to heighten our perception of reality.
