My interest: Our shifting relationship to space and place, and the way we think about the environment and nature. The Project: Take the viewer to places both inward and alien that could exist in the real world as well as in a virtual one. How: Mix and match reality with invention, through images that I construct and build using photography, words, product shots or 3-D models. Why: Disrupt our perception and to break free from what we know to be true.

GEONS
The Geonics of Paul-Emile Rioux
In Recognition by Components Theory,
geons are the simple shapes, such as cones or spheres,
which form the building blocks of object recognition.
Dans la théorie de la reconnaissance par composant,
les géons sont les formes simples,
telles que les cônes ou les sphères,
qui forment les blocs de construction de la reconnaissance d'objets.

"Rioux focuses not on the subjects
bracketed within them, in transit, but on the architectonic that isolates them in an overwhelming opacity". James D campbell, 2014 |
