In order to celebrate art3 30 years, Sylvie Vojik didn't want to organize a retrospective.
At this occasion, she wanted us to create a sort of event that could reflect times lines within art3 : exhibitions, editions, productions, research, residences...
We proposed her a serie of 16 posters and an specific event which was connected to mode of appearance of visuals :
1. Dissemination of 16 posters by social networks. The sale of posters was launched in order to support art3.
2. Launch of the project Always want the space to reappear
This project was a tribute to people who have worked with art3. This persons sent pictures of billboards in the city where they live. We moved the original picture and we "implanted" one of the 16 posters. Visuals appear alternately in a virtual way in the world : Madrid, New-York, Stuttgart, Montreal, etc…
3. Launch of an urban exhibition of 16 posters in Valence. We made a specific request to cultural department of the town in order to obtain and reserve 30 advertising boards.
We producted and printed each poster within our studio on our own plotter.
Each board presented a original poster, some were in duplicate in all districts of Valence.
The event took place from 15 February to 8 March, 2017.

Posters are based on repeated graphic module. It's emergence of a shape in a process of duplicate, movement or proliferation until it is exhausted. There are insertions and delations with layers that create micro differences on the density and the transparency. This principle stages a "ghostly" module and create a temporality through the succession of areas/surfaces.
