The Perfectible Utopia cycle digests the absurdity of the world and highlights the place of the individual in society.

Le Sommeil / Adam's CAM
In a video with pronounced grain (night shot) presented like a painting, a naked woman is lying with her back to the viewer. The screen surface is touch sensitive. A sensual, erotic relationship engages with the image.
In the Net Art version, the video is presented like a webcam on the adamscam.net website.

Towers of Babel
A text is projected onto a piece of furniture built for this purpose. I testify as a foreigner who settles in the United States, and describe my impressions and my relationship to the language.
The visitor can translate the text into the language of his choice by placing the corresponding dictionary at the location of the projection. By stacking the dictionaries, the text is translated into as many languages used.
A poetic language evolves before our eyes.

Probable Spam
A wall of the exhibition is covered with handwritten letters. We are all used to this type of content that we try to avoid at all costs in our emails: spam.
The "spam" were copied by hand except for one detail: the purpose of these missives (to ask for money) was removed to keep only the stories served up by hackers to appease their victims. In rest of ubiquitous and tasty testimonies never stingy in melodramatic details.

ZOON POLITIKON
A 6m high tower in the center of the glazed courtyard of the Beaux-Arts de Paris. The entrance to this tower is low, so you have to bend down to enter. Inside, a pedestal over 2m stands in the center of the room and from its top is projected a video that illuminates the ceiling: the animation of a colorful pattern that resembles cell division.
