Nova
With their installation Nova, Lena Amuat & Zoë Meyer take over the three rooms of L’Appartement with images from their evolving photographic series. Since 2009, they have documented scientific, historical, or educational artefacts, removed from contextand reimagined. The first room shows customs-confiscated objects, displayed as curiosities stripped of their original meaning. The second invokes the artists’ studio, bringing together academic models, books, and prism photographs. The third presents vanished museum pieces, cut out and turned into shadows of the past. The hallway features striking images manipulated physically and digitally. Like the sudden flare of an invisible star, Nova forms a fictional, domestic museum where the image acts as a fragment of memory.
