This exhibition is co-curated by Milieux Institute Associate Director Dr. Alice Jarry alongside Catherine Bédard, Samuel Bianchini, and Marie-Pier Boucher. The exhibition features work from more than 10 students and alumni affiliated with Milieux, highlighting the institute’s role in fostering emerging talents.
As part of the Némo – International Biennial of Digital Arts of the Île-de-France, this exhibition incorporates material and symbolic, living and semi-living processes that metamorphose over time.
Oscillation unfolds like a constellation organised around a central work, Fossilation, a large bioplastic membrane that illuminates the materiality of digital technologies often imagined in their immateriality. This suspended installation – whose sprawling cables distributed throughout the space feed the work with the residual energy of the building – anchors the exhibition in an active quest to create environments that take shape in the porosity between practices and in the activation of relays between objects, material and flows, researchers and the public.
