Chaotic Human Nature emphasises the loss of our current existences while still conceding a certain tenderness. In a riot of post-Y2K images: dried thistles; monumental beach fairground; faded luxury; everyday detritus and fleeting tenderness.
Hubert Marot (b. 1986) graduated from Gobelins – l'École de l'image in Photography. He lives and works in Paris. Hubert Marot's practice is illusionistic: photographs are paintings, installations sculptures; but is also prudent, wise, meticulous. It comes from observation, from the careful gaze he takes around him. His work is also marked by a form of mysterious triviality and a penchant for antiquity, the imperishable, a race that he knows is lost in advance.
His work has been exhibited both in France and internationally in solo and group exhibitions such as Studiolo, FR; Fonda Space, DE; Sans Titre Gallery, FR; High Art Gallery, FR; Fondation Ricard, FR; Fondation Vuitton, FR; Galerie Until Then, FR; The Camera Club of New York, USA; The Pill, TR; La Friche Belle de Mai, FR.
