RGB RULES
Series
2013 — 2016
In mass culture based on interaction, everything is a pretext for debate. Anyone has the opportunity to comment publicly on content, anonymously or not.
Digital networks are encroaching more and more on everyday life.
The visitor is instantly projected into "RGB Rules", establishing a dialogue. He will be able to "walk in
the work, "changing the composition of it to every second.
As in the digital worlds, his image will be subject to the approval / disapproval of individuals represented
by their hands.
The hands are gloved, evoking the anonymity and distance (paradoxical) related to new media.
Some hands, which at first sight are animated with clear intentions, may take on a different meaning when
that one circulates in the work. Indeed, clapping hands end up encircling, touching the viewer, so
that the hands that "like" or "do not like" turn into threatening fists, opening the debate about
new limits of privacy introduced by the digital.
