« je t’aperçois » - l’antichambre et le cabinet botaniste

At first glance, this antechamber seems to play with quite classical codes. It is a passageway to another space in the house. However, a disconcerting modernity emanates, expressed through the play of materials and the insertion of contemporary panels. The décor is a Crystal White marble paneling intercepted by backlit opaline glass panels. The floor is made of black Nero Marquina marble with a satin finish and white Crystal White marble with a hammered finish. The coffered ceiling is made of black defibered oak. In the middle is the "Cabinet Botaniste", a virtual and real cabinet with a secret. Gilles and Boissier threw themselves into the unknown of metavers with aurèce vettier. This universe is not so far from their daily life because the creation of each space is part of the invention of a virtual space. The virtual creation is the obligatory passage of each of their projects. Each set is imagined, composed, retouched and furnished virtually. It is then manufactured and inhabited. Each piece of furniture is also designed and invented for its setting. These four virtual and real works explain the exciting interaction between these two worlds. aurèce vettier is a studio founded by Paul Mouginot in 2019. The collective aims to understand how relevant and meaningful interactions with machines and algorithms can be achieved, in order to push the boundaries of creative processes. The works of aurèce vettier are the result of a lot of back and forth between the "real" space in which we exist, where we can draw, paint, sculpt, break, erase; and the "data" space, where we can play with more dimensions than we humans can understand. In this virtual space, which may involve artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms or heavy mathematical processing, the studio expands the possibilities, exploring new forms that can be projected into reality.
