Une Chambre En Ville, 1996

Newspapers, telephone, mini television, radio alarm clock, lighting system emitting light that changes from blue to red and then to orange 

This is an early iconic work from the artist‘s series of Chambres (rooms) that, with economic simplicity, construct environments meant to evoke periods (developmental, cultural, historical), atmospheres or emotions through color, functional or ornamental objects, and sometimes imagery. The Chambres act like conflations of mnemonic traces, creating spaces full of a vague concreteness, of half-remembered occurrences and objects, which also characterizes the dynamics of dreams.
