Aurélien Grèzes

Grèzes is a multidisciplinary artist working mainly in video. In his work he searches for the intriguing and confusing shapes that involve perceptual issues. Frictions occur between reality and appearances. Boundaries with fiction remain unclear. Having a particular interest in the relation between the work of art and the spectator, the artist tries to shape unexpected and singular connections. He attempts to embody works that are neither closed nor static. Beyond what they show, Grèzes focuses on the sensations they produce: absorption, detachment, strain, floating, etc. He imagines the experience of the viewer to look like a destabilizing flow, that brings him closer to or away from the work— striving to make the spectator feel powerless to grasp what he is facing or to determine at what they are “really” looking.
