Jean-René Lorand

Born in 1967 in Rennes, he lives in Bruz (France).

 

The artist Christl Lidl has adapted her piece Passage for the espace EDF-Bazacle de Toulouse. It consists of human-scale video images that seem to float in the air, creating a feeling of mystery  two and solitude. Moreover, Christl Lidl and Jean René Lorand here reactivate one of the most spectacular techniques in the history of photography, in order to question our perception and our vision through two technical devices created for the festival le Printemps de septembre. The result of this are some magical images almost as real as reality and as ethereal as the space they take up.
