By seeking to transcribe them into images through the use of algorithms, the studio blurs the limits of reality and surprises itself: technology extends human dreams and enriches them. In the space of a year, aurèce vettier has exhibited in prestigious institutions and art fairs, including the Cultural Foundation of Tinos, the Brownstone Foundation, 91530 Le Marais, Asia Now and TEFAF Maastricht. In addition to the luxury houses Gucci and Giambattista Valli, aurèce vettier has collaborated with the interior design firm Gilles & Boissier to create a unique piece of furniture, featuring the secrets of an exceptional savoir-faire and exhibited at the National Archives Museum. Presently sought after by many collectors, curators and foundation directors aurèce vettier federates a passionate public growing with each exhibition. aurèce vettier’s work announces the turning point of the contemporary art scene and makes us glimpse at the beginnings of a large-scale artistic revolution. Thirty-three oil paintings of identical format (30 x 20 cm) are presented to the public. aurèce vettier revisits here the concept of sacred icons, moving away from traditional symbolic representations. They plunge us into a world where unsuspected forms, places and objects are now revealed. This series echoes the artist’s many existential questions, linked to the perception of the passing of time as well as the intrinsic contrast of eternity in the face of death, which he tries to conquer with the help of precursory tools. This innovative creation process is built around the incessant back and forth between real and digital spaces. He strives to push back the limits of creation in order to go beyond the human frontier of the "comprehensible". The works of aurèce vettier are thus marked by the multiplicity of processes, the entanglement of dimensions and the interconnection of intelligences. ## Relationships ### Exhibited artworks - [a bearded man walking on the Moon](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-bearded-man-walking-on-the-moon.md) - [a black cat living in an haussmannian apartment](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-black-cat-living-in-an-haussmannian-apartment.md) - [a comet passing by Mount Analogue in the middle of the night](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-comet-passing-by-mount-analogue-in-the-middle-of-the-night.md) - [a bearded man in a swamp, eaten by a catfish](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-bearded-man-in-a-swamp-eaten-by-a-catfish.md) - [a fish being decapitated by a sharp knife held by a hand; I am the fish, the knife and the hand](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-fish-being-decapitated-by-a-sharp-knife-held-by-a-hand.md) - [a multi-coloured, plump dog calmly devouring the universe, its open mouth revealing the infinity of galaxies](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-multi-coloured-plump-dog-calmly-devouring-the-universe.md) - [a Porsche in the forest](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-porsche-in-the-forest.md) - [brightly-lit stag chair (tribute to Joseph Beuys)](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/brightly-lit-stag-chair-tribute-to-joseph-beuys.md) - [David Lynch](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/david-lynch.md) - [a family of ghosts dancing in the night](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-family-of-ghosts-dancing-in-the-night.md) - [two men with a bob haircut in a terrifying house and I know they are my cousins](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/two-men-with-a-bob-haircut-in-a-terrifying-house.md) - [a French castle and its orchard](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-french-castle-and-its-orchard.md) - [a bearded man looking at dinosaurs in a dark museum](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-bearded-man-looking-at-dinosaurs-in-a-dark-museum.md) - [a bearded man floating among the stars](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/a-bearded-man-floating-among-the-stars.md) - [Kalash Criminel emerging from a Rothko painting](https://aurecevettier.com/en/works/sur-reality/kalash-criminel-emerging-from-a-rothko-painting.md) ### Collaborators - [Emerging from a Rothko painting](https://aurecevettier.com/en/collaborations/kalash-criminel.md) ## Official references - [Official page](https://www.darmoart.com/exhibitions/circular-ruins)
