Before or After the Crossing of the Red Sea

Cette œuvre est une adaptation de la peinture à l'huile de Poussin, "Le Passage de la Mer Rouge". Elle transforme un lieu sacré et sublime d'un événement religieux en un paysage tridimensionnel pur. Moïse et le peuple israélien, traditionnellement au centre de la scène, sont absents, laissant le paysage de la plage prendre le rôle principal. Les humains nomment la nature selon leurs activités, mais avant ou après ces événements, la nature demeure inchangée, existant au rythme de son propre temps.

LIU Guangli 刘广隶 was born in 1990 in Lengshuijiang, China. He currently lives and works in Paris. He graduated from Le Fresnoy - Studio national des arts contemporains in 2020. Guangli's works often emerge from the intersection of different approaches to depicting history and events, and ultimately find their own places in installations, videos, documentaries, and paintings that suggest our understanding of the present is often shaped by pre-existing languages, social norms, and media formats through which pieces of information are transmitted. He won the Golden Nica and Honorary Mention in the Computer Animation category at Ars Electronica (2021, 2022), as well as the Golden Key for Best Short Film at Kassel Dokfest (2021).
