Ève Dorais and Edouard Pretty
Voyage stationnaire
Is reality in facts or in beliefs? If reality exists, it is constantly contaminated by human vision and understanding. The Pretty-Dorais duo proposes a fictional journey in two parts.
Is reality in facts or in beliefs? If reality exists, it is constantly contaminated by human vision and understanding. The Pretty-Dorais duo proposes a fictional journey in two parts. Starting with a kitchen in Montreal, the duo fabricated a journey through Europe, Latin America and North Africa. During six months, seventy randomly selected people received a series of letters recounting the adventures of their two "friends". The exhibition at DARE-DARE will put an end to this deception and reveal how it works.
