Constrained Objects
Based on a fictional story that presents the life of plastic components, this book takes the form of a digital collage made from photographs and computer graphics. By simulating the different stages of an assembly line, the polymorphic character and aesthetic properties of these plastic components are revealed. The texts are taken directly from various software documentation manuals. Paradoxically, bringing these texts together in a coherent way tends to produce a narrative in which objects become self-propelled entities constrained by unknown forces, insofar as the human subject is itself instrumentalized.
