Cosmique cosmétique
For Cosmique cosmétique Julie Monot and Gil Pellaton have composed a Cyborgian narrative which hints at a strange yet familiar fable. Moving between ancestral myth and science fiction, their creations clash in the exhibition space, climb, open out, cross-breed, mutate. They are both protagonists and imaginary creatures. Signs, imprints and moults reveal the existence or absence of invisible bodies. Whether organic or artificial, the objects appear to be waiting to be seized or to move, revealing a fragmented and latent physicality. Cosmique cosmétique, the first artistic encounter between Monot and Pellaton, is designed as a sort of mad treasure hunt where each piece occupies a dreamlike realm emerging from a collective and biological fantasy.
