framed scrolling
défilement encadré réfléchit, à la manière d’un miroir déformant, l’exposition dans laquelle elle figure. Brouillant les pistes entre mondes physique et virtuel, baron lanteigne transpose l’exposition en ligne Re|Search dans un environnement tridimensionnel rappelant le cube blanc de la galerie. L’oeuvre se penche, non sans ironie, sur la mise en espace d’expositions ainsi que sur les conditions de réception des internautes. Elle prolonge en ce sens les intérêts de l’artiste concernant la participation en ligne et la spatialisation du Web. défilement encadré entraîne l’internaute dans un parcours labyrinthique. Sans début ni fin réels et présentée en boucle, la vidéo crée l’illusion d’une exploration infinie et, par conséquent, un épuisement des images, des espaces et du sujet. Véritable mise en abyme, l’oeuvre offre un aperçu de l’exposition tout en évoquant la variabilité des expériences en ligne. texte de Lisa Troncaframed scrolling reflects, the way a distorting mirror would, the exhibition it is part of. Blurring the line between physical and virtual worlds, baron lanteigne transposes the online exhibition Re|Search into a three-dimensional environment recalling the gallery's white cube. The work looks, not without irony, at how exhibitions are staged and at the conditions under which online visitors receive them. In that sense it extends the artist's interests in online participation and in the spatialization of the Web. framed scrolling draws the online visitor into a labyrinthine course. With no real beginning or end, and presented as a loop, the video creates the illusion of an endless exploration and, as a result, an exhaustion of images, of spaces and of the subject itself. A true mise en abyme, the work offers a glimpse of the exhibition while evoking the variability of online experience. text by Lisa Tronca

As the pandemic pushed many art events online, virtual museums emerged promising immersive and interactive experiences. In practice, they often became linear, technically constrained spaces where artworks were over-compressed to accommodate outdated hardware. I was struck by how these methods of online diffusion frequently diluted the essence of the works, reshaping both their perception and their substance.
In framed scrolling, you are stuck on "rails" in an endless tour of a virtual museum filled with screens on which you can watch me scroll through different pieces from the online exhibition Re|Search. This virtual exploration is a reflection on our relation with screens and space and how those can impact our perception of artworks. My aim was to generate something pointless and cumbersome by how it aspires to present artworks which are now trimmed and distorted. Their integration in physical space disfavors how we consume the works. That said, please visit the "originals".
The following works can be partly seen within my piece:
Critical Atlas of Internet by Louise Drulhe mollysoda.explosed by Molly Soda We are fragmented by Amira Hanafi I'm Google by Dina Kelberman PRÖSPECT by Isabelle Gagné & Paul Gascou-Vaillancourt & Stéphane Archambault The New Organs by Sam Lavigne & Tega Brain My Google Search History by Albertine Meunier Désordre by Philippe de Jonckheere Network Effect by Jonathan Harris & Greg Hochmuth Predictive Art Bot by Disnovation.org & Jérôme Saint-Clair Baby Come Home by Foundland Collective
