Christoffer Ellegaard décrit un monde où l’automatisation canalise le flux humain dans l’accomplissement de sa tâche et où la technologie et l’urbanisation règnent en maîtres. Cette fascination pour la technologie et pour l’innovation de notre société consumériste sont entre autres les thèmes qu’aborde le travail du dessinateur. Il met en place un univers d’anticipation où l’Homme Nouveau brille de sa mission « unique » d’alimenter le groupe de son énergie « positive ».

Né en 1979 à Rio de Janeiro, Brésil. Il vit et travaille à Rio de Janeiro.
Il a su créer un art authentique, en utilisant plusieurs médias : dessin, peinture, broderie, carreaux de porcelaine et sculpture. Fernando de la Rocque est un artiste brésilien qui a obtenu son Baccalauréat en sculpture à l’Université des Beaux-Arts de Rio de Janeiro en 2004. Son vocabulaire pictural intègre des figures humaines joyeuses et colorées et fait référence au plaisir à travers des scènes sensuelles. L’utilisation de fumée hallucinogène est présente en tant que médium créatif dans le travail psychédélique de l’artiste. Cela a suscité de nombreux débats.

While the Internet can seem like a place disconnected from the physical world, much of the activity that occurs there deeply affects how people feel outside of it. In the age of social media, where selfhood is effaced by self-promotion, and the glorification of digital beauty undermines the truthfulness of real self-expression, women very often become dissatisfied with what they see in the mirror. Modern technology provides women with tools that allow them to quickly create dream digital image of themselves. Using various beauty applications, they can smooth, contour their faces, whiten their teeth, add a few centimetres of height, enlarge their eyes, choose different mouths, and use many other options.

In this series, I tried to challenge our trust of digitally constructed imagery in the context of the post-photographic era. The project was inspired by the failures and bugs in the popular beauty apps, where unnatural bodies get distorted. I used photography as a starting point, alongside digital tools to create an expressive project that is both a critique and a celebration of the ongoing progress in contemporary technology and culture. I employed many methods of creating images: preparing three-dimensional collages constructed from stock images and my own portraits, photographing the scenes, printing in large sizes, physically manipulating prints, and digitally editing selected photos. In the final work, I tried to leave visible traces of digital processing, partly revealing my working methods in order to provoke discussion about contemporary photography.

Digitally edited images can serve as aspirational fantasies and occasionally they even can have a positive impact – when they are just effects of joyful entertainment. But can the game in which “your body is a battleground” be truly enjoyable? The phrase from Barbara Kruger’s iconic work has just as much resonance today as it did more than a quarter of a century ago.
