VERTIGO
"Vertigo" instills in the heart of works or between them a seductive disturbance. Each image becomes a residue of a general fragmented and silent frame. For several years, Lenny Rébéré has built up a vast atlas in the form of a digital database on which thousands of images taken daily from the Internet are listed. If he draws some of his subjects from it, he completes here his selection of personal photographs taken during his holidays. This mixture underlines the porosity between micro-stories and collective memory in the visual writing of history. Landscapes, lascivious bodies, close-up faces or divers then appear like afterimages, concealing a strange familiarity. Unstable indices of the “information cloud” generated by globalization, where everything is a pretext to be processed and then archived, the artist leads each of his images to the threshold of their crystallization [...]. The colored filters that cover the glass plates also set the tone. They give an artificial appearance performances while accentuating their seductive effect. These color gradients, like a whim, pervert the images, veiling them with a twilight atmosphere, between reverie and erotic melancholy.

UNTITLED
“Behind the window which occupies the center of the composition, a party is taking place. A figure has not been invited, from the outside and through the glass, she tries to observe what she cannot participate. Herself a spectator, she reflects and embodies the position in which we find ourselves. The reflections of the glass represented are reflected on the glass plates used by the artist. Those represented by the artist opacify the screen behind which the figure is hiding; those which are reflected on the glass reveal to us not only the one in front of which we find ourselves but also the world which continues to exist around him. face, a part of the body or of clothing which are reflected in their turn, adding a new layer to these ambiguous images, already difficult to fully grasp.
