#FOREST

With his ethereal compositions, Mathieu Merlet-Briand explores internet materiality. In #FOREST, he gathers a database of online images depicting the woods. Hues of green and yellow remind of the physical reality of the photographed subject. Meanwhile, elements come together through algorithms, bringing a myriad of pictures to inhabit the canvas. The fragments add up to form an abstract, bi-chromatic whole. While withdrawing from their initial matter, they show a weaving of relics from the world wide web.
