From Still to Stilled

Question: How to overcome the rigidity of architecture in favour of contemplation?

In his latest project, visual and conceptual artist Amaury Wenger embarks on a fascinating journey that blurs the boundaries between photography, animation and abstract expressionism. He begins with a seemingly familiar base: his own photographs, which capture fragments of landscapes, fleeting moments of natural light and architecture. In Wenger's hands, however, these images undergo a metamorphosis, shedding their realism and blossoming into vibrant constellations of colour and texture.

Through digital manipulation, Wenger extracts the essence of his photographs, amplifying shapes, distorting perspectives and imbuing them with a dreamlike quality. Lines dance across the canvas, morphing from branches to brushstrokes, while hues bleed into one another, evoking a kaleidoscope of emotions. He invites us to step beyond the literal boundaries of the picture.

But Wenger's ambition isn't just to transform the visual. He breathes life into his abstract compositions, infusing them with the magic of animation. Layers of movement emerge, shapes pirouetting in a silent ballet. This dance is not merely spectacle; it becomes a channel for introspection, inviting viewers to project their own narratives onto the shifting canvas.

Ultimately, Wenger's ethereal creations culminate in a unique marriage of the physical and the digital. Each animated photograph is minted as an NFT, existing both as a tangible work of art and as a resident of the vibrant blockchain ecosystem. To own one of these works is to hold a key to a portal, to enter an ever-evolving dialogue between memory, abstraction and the intangible energy that binds them.

In this way, Amaury Wenger's project transcends the boundaries of a single genre. It is a symphony of light and movement, a whispered poem etched in pixels, and a portal to a universe where reality yields to the artist's poetic touch. It is an invitation to dance with the ghosts of memory, to lose yourself in the rhythm of the unseen, and to discover the extraordinary in the ordinary.
