I am a Franco-Spanish artist based in Tokyo, working at the intersection of art, technology, and speculative futures. I had made many different kinds of art before, but one night, while drifting through the dark net, I stumbled upon a corrupted thread of data. At first it looked broken, meaningless — until I followed it deeper and hacked my way into Arkhorin’s Nexus, the forbidden museum at the center of the universe. Inside, I discovered archives leaking fragments of both past and future, relics from worlds long extinguished or yet to emerge . I stole them, and I have been replicating them ever since.
I replicate stolen data through sculptural systems: 3D-printed artefacts and specimen encased in their containment units. They echo the intimacy of ancient cabinets of curiosity yet operate with the logic of futuristic museology. Each piece is a fragment smuggled into the present— reminders of lost worlds, warnings from futures that may arrive, and invitations to imagine what we choose to carry forward.
My path began in sound, until tinnitus forced a re-rooting in the visual field. That rupture taught me to listen differently — to machines, to errors, data glitches, to the static between what has vanished and what has yet to come. My works emerge as transmissions recovered, histories re-materialized, and visions reframed for the present.
