The exhibition Stanley Revisited 2011 brings art and architecture together in an effort to challenge the relationship between past and present in the context of an urban home. The installations presented are the result of a competition, which invited artists to take inspiration from the construction of an architectural project involving the transformation of a heritage building located on Stanley Street.
With this exhibition, KANVA seeks to establish a closer connection between art and architecture to promote their complementarities and to highlight their importance in the evolution of the metropolis.

Inspired by the architectural project on Stanley Street, RESSAC has chosen to embody the architecture to make an analogy to the relationship between Man and his environment. Hidden between two images, the motion of which is dizzying, there is this flash of light, the repeated movement of the waves. At the center of Man, there is nature, there is instinct. RESSAC is an architectural construct on the subject of identity consisting of our social environment and our origins. |
Inspired by the Stanley architectural project and delving into the subject of ornamentation, the installation Vorticose is an ode to a photographic series Géométrie Expérimentale by the early scientific photographer Etienne-Jules Marey. Through the phenomenon of persistence of vision and the natural oscillation of rotational fields, the piece seeks to create a condition of immaterial and ghostly waveforms in constant search for equilibrium within a seemingly unstable system. |
