EDEN
Eden (2019)
Immersive and interactive installation of Hugo Arcier and Cyril Teste for 5 connected users
EDEN is the winner of the 2019 SENSible Prize – Geneva International Film Festival.
Eden is an interactive virtual reality experience in which the spectator gives birth to a vegetal universe through their gaze. Each participant creates a unique ecosystem whose development and survival depend on the attention they devote to it. The virtual forest can only grow and prosper through sustained presence, making the act of looking a form of care. The project proposes a sensitive relationship to nature, where interaction becomes an act of attention rather than control.

FOLDED NATURE
The hallucination is in fact a set of memories, where the colors of a real nature mingle with the folds of a pop-up book nature.
UNFOLDED NATURE
…The result of this is a distraught vision of a destructured nature, an artefact formed with multiple shreds, that Arman would have designate as « archaeology of the future ». A puzzle for future generations, for the day nature will have disappeared.
SURFACE MOUVEMENT – SURFACE LUMIERE
The digital material in this film is a repository and only exists thanks to the creations of Len Lye; but also, as in a painting by Soulages, it forms, transforms and emits in its turn.
L’AFFAIBLISSEMENT PROGRESSIF DES RESSOURCES
Thanks to the movement we distinguish a hollow character caught in a stylised snow storm. He walk and slowly exhausts himself…

FICTION 1
This full 3D computer graphics film draws from the events that struck Japan in March 2011, and more specifically, the way the events were covered in the media.
FICTION 2 or a gentle evocation of radioactive particles.
This series follows “Fiction 1” a work inspired by the events that took place in Japan, March 2011. We are in this series after the tsunami.
ARTEFACT
The aim of the Artefact series is to highlight those ‘material accidents’ in 3D computer graphics, and by doing so, to showcase the way in which the artist takes a ‘trial and error’ approach.
