Invisible fragments is a scalable audio-visual installation that unveils several miniature territories, whose details, inaccessible to the naked eye, become objects of contemplation under the camera-eye.

As the camera roams and probes these territories of the infinitesimal, the work gradually sediments into a microcosmic universe, evocative of an aesthetics of the sublime whose scale of perceptive grandeur transcends everyday references. Through a process of poeticization of these unsuspected infra-worlds and supra-worlds, the camera-eye allows one to perceive at the same time as it re-maps different worlds sensitive to manifold movements. From the realities of the textures and the reliefs of these environments filmed in macro are born fictions in which perception and imagination are in constant dialogue.

The spatialized sound tracks that accompany the images are purely subjective and seek to create a synchrony with the unfolding images. The use of combined sounds in this installation makes it possible to link heterogeneous spaces. The aesthetics of this installation aims to explore possible complexifications of the relationship between time and space, visual perception and auditory perception, optical source and sound source.
