Sensory autonomy

Ophélie Demurger (FR), Valentin Godard (FR)

POSTCITY, First Floor, CAMPUS EXHIBITION @POSTCITY, located next to Open Futurelab OG1

Ein Mikrofonrekorder ist zwischen Geflüster und dem Gehörgang eingeschoben. Diejenigen, die aus der Ferne operiert haben, stehen jetzt vor deinen Augen: Die Humanoiden von BoTaG sind für dich da. Die rätselhaften und geheimen Kreaturen kehren für eine gefilmte ASMR-Session hinter ihre Bildschirme zurück, die während der gesamten Dauer der Ausstellung kontinuierlich übertragen wird.

Biografien:

Born in 1994, Ophélie Demurger graduated from ENSBA Lyon in 2018. Through performances, installations and videos, she works on issues of incarnation and our relations to one another. Playing on her status as an artist, sometimes a fan, sometimes a star, she investigates the fascination between celebrities and their audience. She recently presented her work at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lyon or Do Disturb! at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris.

Born in 93, and then another time in 2003, Valentin Godard went through theatre classes, Ivalice and Rivebois before the ENSBA Lyon. His pointed ears were, for a time, enough to fight against bad guys until, with his green bird head, he went traveling around the world (even though everything was over). Artist for the ENSBA Lyon digital UR, and Trinity Bellucci where he’s a member of the collective Les enfants de Diane, Valentin’s body is at the moment the home of foreign tongues and smells like a wet dog when it’s in the shower.
