Dislocation II is a series of photographs, videos and sculptures representing house and office's furniture in various state of disintegration. This work is inspire by the increasing aestheticization of the destruction in the mass medias and it questions the relation between a form and a matter. When a destroyed object isn't recognizable any more? This series questions the abstraction and the representation by slowing down to the extreme the dislocation of the objects. The dislocated pieces of furniture are produced from the same computer's files that are then translated in synthesis' process and stereolithography.
