DescriptionVirginie studied MA Fine Art at Central Saint Martins. They say:
'My work starts from the diagnosis of a globalized 'glitch' in contemporary societies. In a context of a crisis, I question our way to connect to the world. Starting from this observation, I work following a journey of de-construction; de-construction
of beliefs, thoughts and identity. I thus walk with the return to silence and immobility as a focal point. Seeking to mirror in the image the tremor that will bring down the veils of illusion. It invites people to ask themselves who I am in this world and how I am connected to it.'
