3021, The Odyssey of Humankind
Bastien Pery
For its first exhibition, the Unlocked collective presents the young visual artist Bastien Pery. Currently an artist in residence at the Laboratoires de la création, the artist will exhibit nine of his works for the first time in a solo show. Raising people’s awareness of nature and the world that hosts them, in order to make them aware of the climate challenges ahead, is the vision Bastien Pery wants to convey through his series Artificialia. Hard to identify at first glance, these objects conceal clues, shapes, or materials that the viewer must detect in a game of imagination all their own.
Bastien Pery offers a personal reading of humankind in 3021. The artist steps out of our present to offer works that disturb the eye through a deeply mysterious vision, and a desire to highlight modern man’s relationship with digital technology. He questions not only the human as a physical being, but also the environment that defines him as a specific being. Thus, in this questioning of human evolution, through the visitor’s eyes one can see a journey through the archives of what was once our world, and which perhaps, in 3021, will be no more than a distant memory.
The Unlocked collective invites you to the exhibition in IESA’s generously provided gallery. Accompanied by a jury of professionals made up of Connaissance des Arts journalist Guillaume Morel, the deputy mayor of the 11th arrondissement in charge of culture, photographer Christophe Beauregard, and IESA director Boris Grebille, the Unlocked collective was able to spot a singular and promising talent in Bastien Pery.
