Variations of European oriental exotics, photogenic camouflage operations, artists walking on clouds and solid colors: an impressive field of possibilities.
In 1890, Guy de Maupassant published The Wandering Life, a chronicle of a journey across the Mediterranean from Algiers to Egypt via Tunisia. Jesmine Ben Khelil was born in Tunisia in 1986, where many of the clichés of Orientalism, the glow of the sunset, the sensuality of the woman, the myth of Paradise Lost were discovered. She turns them into collages, most of which are small, in which the images are cut out like scalpels and layered on top of each other like thin geological layers. Taken from illustrated books and travel postcards, they are most often complemented by the deliberate use of kitschy color lines and placed on an ironic decorative watercolor background, reminiscent of Maupassant-era marble-bound paper. Therefore, Ben Khelil has assembled a collection of images typical of Eastern exoticism in Europe, and images that are so common today. Ph.D.

The revelation was long gone: Elina Brotherus is one of the most dexterous artists using photography and code today. She presents herself as a model in the most diverse and unexpected places, situations and poses, bringing originality to each of her large images, immersing them in absurdity, fantasy, black humor or symbolism. In his latest collections, camouflage is the common denominator, but they are rejected in many ways: a floral dress against a floral wallpaper, sunflowers disguised as Van Gogh in a field, slipping into Friedrich contemplating Sebald’s book, Become a shining fairy in the forest, Rebecca Horn in the grass or Robert Morris in the snow in a melancholy landscape. These are just a few examples. Oddities and allusions are visible at first sight or more insidious and require careful study. It also allows us to evaluate the accuracy of composition and lighting.
