Immerse yourself in the fictional and organic worlds of a “professional dreamer”. Maya Rochat is not simply a painter, nor quite a photographer. The Swiss artist gladly leaves the too smooth or too narrow framework of the traditional figure to design a radical, violent, pop and sweet work. An explosive cocktail characterized by its
hypnotic, holographic, almost chemical clichés, or by its brilliant blue inks covered with bleach. Through her successive destructions and constructions, physical and digital, Maya Rochat shifts reality towards an imaginary world, an artificial landscape saturated with colors. Literally bathed in
“matter”, the artist plunges us into a life-size, colorful, raw, punk, asphyxiating abstraction. This exhibition – the first of this scale in the capital – is no exception to the rule. From the unbridled collages of her debut to this room covered with printed carpets, converted into an immersive projection space, the photographer denounces here the visual pollution generated by the continuous flow of digital images in the most beautiful way.
