Matthieu Gafsou

1. Corruptions series.
2. Surfaces series.

"As I see it, images – truncated representations – multiply the failure of our experiences: by essence, photography is a medium that embodies the tension created by a subject both close and remote. It is a metaphor for my own inability to grasp the world, but has the power to transfigure. For the point is also to transform an empirical subject into something new, something sculptural, with a life of its own. Transforming objects may just be the best way to describe them. Only then can we assume our presence as an onlooker, trapped in a body and a mind that must convey – or create? – reality."—Gafsou about Surfaces.

Matthieu Gafsou (1981) is a franco-swiss photographer based in Lausanne.

Max Bill (1908-1994) Switzerland
Swiss-born German artist, Max Bill, was a product of the Bauhaus generation, pupil of Walter Gropius and kindred spirit of Le Corbusier and Mies VanderRohewas. He was a virtuoso designer and creative artist, as his diverse activities as a painter, architect, sculptor, teacher, and designer amply demonstrate.

Hektor Meets Dexter Sinister

Hektor is a portable spray paint output device for computers. It was created in collaboration with engineer Uli Franke for Jürg Lehniʼs diploma project at ECAL (École cantonale dʼart de Lausanne) in 2002.
Hektor’s light and fragile mechanism consists only of two motors, toothed belts and a spray can holder. By the means of geometric triangulation and gravity, a custom software moves the spray can along predefined drawing paths and remotely activates the can’s nozzle.
