Laurent Pernot

Born in Lons, France, lives in Paris.
In 2000, I received a BTS in photography at the College Auguste Renoir, Paris (France) followed by a Master in photography & multimedia at the University Paris VIII, Paris, (2002). The last three years, I completed a residency at Le Fresnoy National Studio of Contemporary arts (France), and at S-AIR.ICC in Sapporo (Japan). Actually, I am starting to work on several collaborative projects in Paris, Sapporo and Milan, and I will be soon invited for a scholarship at Stiftung Künstlerdorf Schöppingen (Germany), at Fabrica (Italy) and at PRIM (Montréal, Canada). I exhibit regularly in France and abroad (India, China, Japan, Italy, England, Spain, Poland, Canada, Switzerland and Slovenia) and I am preparing a second solo exhibition in Barcelona.

Laurent Pernot: Confusion

Laurent Pernot: Confusion

One naked man and a kaleidoscope of floating faces capture your attention in this dreamy piece of computer animation. Am I a single man or a being whose circumstances and passions make each time different, a succession of character mixed all together, such as Proust at the end of "the Research of wasted time"*? Am I other-thing that the sum of characters that the others projected on me? The identity is a question which crosses us throughout our whole existence, and many times blurred by the masks that are necessary to wear to fit ourselves in society; We are at the same time a single man and all of the men.
(Bernadette Delamarre, l'existence: la mort, le bonheur, Ellipses, Paris, 1996)
