Voici une visite virtuelle de mon installation "Illumi-NATION", réalisée en 2014 à la galerie Fresh Paint. Il vous suffit de cliquer sur l'image puis d'utiliser les flèches du clavier pour se déplacer dans l'image ou alors de cliquer en déplaçant le curseur de la souris. Here's a panorama of an installation I made with the help of some friends last January, at Fresh Paint Gallery in Montreal. I wanna thank Igor Krucko for the panorama, Damien Fumex for the still pictures and Yann Meurot for the description of the project. Here's what he had to say about it:
Upon entering the room, it feels like the fourth of July in America. The Stars and Stripes of the American flag are everywhere. This abundance of patriotic symbols seems a bit excessive to be innocent however... The eagle has two heads, the Catholic cross is merged with the $ sign and the eye above the pyramid seems to be watching us. The enigmatic maxims listed here and there and the various staged objects invite us to reconsider the history of the United States through its unknown facets. The American people are proud of their country's values, they like to display the emblems of the nation. But are the foundations of America so well-meaning that its people believe them? Illumi-NATION, Fresh Paint Gallery, Montreal, 2014, Photos © Adrien Fumex For my latest exhibit, "Abri Temporel", I revisited several paranormal topics from popular culture. I was also inspired by recent theories about the existence of a secret space program, which could explain some UFO sightings.

J'étais invité à peindre en direct lors d'un rave vendredi dernier. J'en ai profité pour explorer un style différent. As Above, So Below
Techniques mixtes sur toile 30" x 40" This image is a loose adaptation of a hand-written chart I found online. It was entitled: "The Conspiracy to Rule the World". It was probably made a few years ago because I found some Communist associations included. I'm not too much into conspiracy theories, but I still find this culture fascinating for what it is. I'm interested in logos and symbols, so this was an occasion to create an image that combines the emblems of some of the most powerful organizations in the world. I enjoy to look at logos and symbols because they are designed to convey very precise ideas which can only be fully understood by paying attention and reading about their history. I could not find a logo for Bilderberg, so I came up with one.
