Synopsis

At the invitation of the Mus?e National Marc Chagall, artist J?r?my Griffaud (born in 1991) has created an immersive multimedia installation on the theme of biodiversity and the hybridization of living things. Designed to echo Chagall's work, it takes the form of a new experience of painting, between materiality and symbolic language, both enhanced by the contribution of digital technology.
Inspired by the painted cycle of the Biblical Message, a masterpiece of universal and spiritual significance and the heart of the museum's permanent collection, Four of Chagall's paintings in particular caught his attention, on the themes of the original Paradise and its loss (Paradise and Adam and Eve driven from Paradise), dreams (Jacob's Dream) and hospitality (Abraham and the Three Angels). Conceived as a looped journey, the visual animation takes the viewer to the center of a teeming, dreamlike world where passages occur between Edenic gardens and island cities, between the underworld and the celestial expanse.

Jérémy GRIFFAUD

Jérémy Griffaud is an artist who explores the question of the spectator in hybrid realities, through devices that blend the virtual and the real. Using digitized watercolors, video game engines, virtual reality headsets and monumental projections, he creates immersive, interactive environments. In his installations Enlarge Yourself and The Garden, for example, visitors become performers, and the work's activation depends on their involvement. In The Origin of Things, visitors find themselves immersed in a psychedelic science-fiction universe that questions Man's relationship with Nature.
Jérémy holds a DNSEP option art (Master's degree), obtained in 2017 at Pavillon Bosio, l'École Supérieured'Arts Plastiques de la Ville de Monaco. The public has been able to experience his work in numerous artistic venues, including the Musée National Marc Chagall in Nice for a solo exhibition, La Panacée in Montpellier, the Four Domes Museums in Wroclaw, and the Wang Xiaoi Art Museum in Shanghai.

Encountering the Virtual and the Real:

A Beginner's Guide to XR

´Ý±â¹öư

Unlike simply watching a screen, XR allows you to step into the story space through VR devices. You may become the protagonist, listen to the protagonist's story as if a friend is narrating, or use controllers to move and guide the story yourself. This freedom to explore and experience the story space is what sets it apart. Discover the new face of cinema, where rapidly advancing technology and art meet and transform.

XR stands for eXtended Reality, encompassing Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR). VR involves wearing a Head Mounted Display (HMD) device to immerse yourself in a completely new 3D digital space. AR overlays digital content onto the real world, easily accessible through smartphones. MR combines VR and AR, recognizing real-world objects and creating a 3D virtual space around them. XR integrates all these technologies, offering increasingly realistic virtual worlds.

You can visit the exhibition site, register on the waiting list for the desired works, and view them. Please note that waiting times may be extended if there are many visitors.

¡°DoF stands for Degree of Freedom.¡± 3DoF works allow you to view from various angles by moving your head while wearing the device. 6DoF works enable you to move freely within the space, using controllers to interact with objects in the artwork, providing a more immersive experience.

Some XR works have age restrictions. You can check the viewing age for each work on the website and on-site before viewing. However, due to the nature of VR devices, it is recommended that minors with underdeveloped visual systems avoid excessive viewing for a safe and comfortable experience.

Due to the nature of VR devices requiring individual usage, group viewing is not available. Groups must use the waiting system individually.

The running time of each work varies from 15 to 90 minutes. Please refer to the website for the running times of the works you wish to view. Viewing all the content may require a week-long visit. To avoid discomfort or motion sickness, it is recommended to take sufficient breaks between viewings.
