Full Description
Rencontres imaginaires is a series of several behavioral interactive videos works
The visitor is faced to an interactive mirror screen. This one reflects his body, his face. Virtual hands and faces are trying to touch him, to catch him. These hands and faces have lots of various behaviors and question relationships to the other. The hands and faces feel the presence and move along the face of the viewer. When he goes away, the hands and faces disappear. They will reappear with other behaviors when a new person will come.
In this artwork, we provocate reactions and gestures from the spectators in response to virtual contacts. The audience plays with the hands which scrap the ear, caress the hair, touch the tip of the lips etc. The contact is virtual but gives strange real feelings for the viewer. It can be amused, annoyed, or expressed some pleasure. The virtual hands and faces appear in black and white superimposed with the image of the viewer. This device gives the illusion of a ghostly troubling reality.
