Description
A breathtaking journey through an AI-generated world.
Drawing on fifteen years of urban exploration, with the help of artificial intelligence, Francis Meslet, a photographer of the poetry of ruins, takes us on a journey of discovery
through an abandoned world in the not-so-distant future. Plant life reclaiming its rights in Europe’s largest deserted libraries; the open-air ruins of the finest theatres; the remains of major decommissioned industrial facilities; Paris overgrown with vegetation; and the ruins of Notre-Dame, which couldn’t be saved from the flames … Francis’s work is much more than just the iconographic documentation of an imagined world.
It is an attempt to reconcile the future and the past, a meditation on the fragility of collective memory. A hunter of ephemeral moments, his generative art images reveal the duality of time, the coexistence of decline and radiance. With his sharp eye, he is a poet of decrepitude, capturing the soul of neglect and making each image a silent cry in the desert of contemporary indifference.
