About
We are afraid only of what we do not know" (Guy de Maupassant)
Between historiography, grand-narrative, documentary, performative design and sculpture, Humeau's work aims at reconnecting with places or events which are extinct, unknown, or physically unreachable.
The impossibility of knowing and the absence of existing data are the starting point for her obsessional expeditions.
She investigates scientific and historic reality; and also have to imagine designed solutions, speculations to fill in the gaps in knowledge.
The (re)created data generates, gives birth to the sculptures and performances.
The audience is left with a semi-real, synthetic, almost-supernatural experience.
