If there is one exhibition not to be missed this year-end, it is Fabien Oefner’s- artist, scientist and TED speaker- available at the M.A.D. Gallery in Geneva.Oefner is always on the lookout for catching what’s invisible, constantly searching for new ways to capture moments in time too fast for the human eye. The result of many long hours of work, Hatch and Disintegrating are two series of astonishing images that have been created from hundreds not to say thousands of shots.
In the Disintegrating series, each car has been dismantled completely, then photographed piece by piece in a specific position to obtain the illusion of an exploding car. In the Hatch series, OGallery in Geneva. gives his interpretation of the birth of a car. He takes a miniature version of a Ferrari GTO, creates a gypsum shell around the car and then smashes it to create the illusion of the vehicle breaking out of its egg. I urge you to read more about Fabian’s technique and discover the rest of his photos: http://www.mbandf.com/mad-gallery/press/other/oefner Eléonor Picciotto
