About the event

Darmo is pleased to present works produced by artist aurèce vettier during an exclusive one-month artistic residency at La Bastide du Roy in Antibes. This initiative is part of a programme of residencies and exhibitions at this emblematic venue on the Côte d’Azur. The exhibition of the artist’s work will run from July 24th to August 2nd 2024.

Known for his innovative approach that fuses art and technology, aurèce vettier has taken advantage of his residency to drastically change the scale of his work. aurèce vettier is the first artist to create bronzes using artificial intelligence in 2020. The bronze sculptures of his impossible plants (Potential Herbariums series) have reached new heights and taken on new forms, creating a fragile, impossible, poetic and monumental nature. The details of these bronzes are pushed to the limit, with the trees and branches mostly gilded and the leaves patinated in a unique immaculate white created by the artist. A smaller body of sculptures stands out for its charred appearance, quasi-fossilised by a striking black patina.

The great innovation lies in the creation of unique bronze trees almost three meters high, which will be deployed in the historic gardens of the Bastide du Roy like anomalies heralding the replacement of traditional vegetation.

For the exhibition, a sound installation was created by aurèce vettier in collaboration in Studio Ingmar. The installation was made with the support of Devialet.
