“Vision occurs through images that penetrate the soul”. This is how Democritus attempts to explain the inexplicable by questioning the invisible aspect of our intimate relationship with the environment through vision. How can we explain that a whole life is not enough to dim the feeling a person has at sunset, even though it is a daily occurrence?

The eye is so accustomed to natural light that it is blind to it. However, if the light is diffracted, concentrated, or projected to a place where it is not normally seen, then it catches our attention and finally becomes tangible. This offset between a natural thing and what we perceive makes the rest of it visible.The whole point of this exhibit is to highlight this offset. Making the invisible visible through a series of optical devices that capture light from the sky and transmit it below the horizon of the vegetation. To create a sunset over the freshwater of the Hortillonnages like a geographical reflection of the Bay of Somme. The light on the landscape becomes a tangible thing visible between the sky and the water.

The visitor observes and participates in the performance through the encounter of his body with the light on the landscape. It is the exhibit that designs this space produced in the distance. A work that changes and is reborn every day.

The artist

Odysseas Yiannikouris

Odysseas is a French visual artist, based in Montpeyroux (63) and Barcelona. He graduated in architecture and urban planning in 2006, his work evolved to artistic production while he was a fellow of the Villa Médicis. Since 2017, through various residencies, exhibitions and installations, he has focused on describing the substances and landscapes of energy and sobriety, to appreciate a wonderful "already there”, both powerful and possible.
