Memories of Blade Runner

Somewhere in latent space, there are films that never saw the light of day in our reality.

Lost in la Mancha with Jean Rochefort has finally been filmed, and Clouzot's Inferno is not unfinished.

The same goes for world history. All that remains is to imagine it.

Fragments of the Latent Space Series

This project offers a visual exploration of latent space through point clouds extracted from imaginary scenes.

By navigating this space, I capture fragments, figures, moments that seem to come from a forgotten film, a collective memory, or an unwritten story.

The aim is not to reconstruct reality, nor to produce finished images, but to record what surfaces: partial, unstable forms, like so many sketches of possible worlds.

These portraits, scenes, or silhouettes never existed, but carry familiar clues within them.

They inhabit this blurred zone between memory, fiction, and desire.
