Ground Truth at Circulation(s) Festival 2022 in Paris

Ground Truth is showing in Circulation(s) festival in Paris until May 29.

Circulation(s) festival takes place at the CENTQUATRE-PARIS @104paris , a cultural place in eastern Paris. Located in the 19th arrondissement, the CENTQUATRE-PARIS is a space of residencies, production and promotion for the public and artists from all over the world. Conceived by its director José-Manuel Gonçalvès as a collaborative artistic platform, it enables access to all today’s arts, through a programme that is resolutely popular, contemporary and challenging. As an atypical living area lined with shops, it also offers spaces for free artistic practice and spaces for infants. For start-ups that are part of its business accelerator, it forms a unique territory for experimentation, at a crossroads of art and innovation.

Ground Truth offers a parallel between the evolution of visual technology and our perception of our surroundings. This project sheds light on the study of the forests of Finland carried out by a group of scientists using hyperspectral imaging. In his work, Sheung Yiu interweaves archival imagery, documentary photography and experimental data to acquaint the reader with the mathematical models that provide the tools to “resurrect” trees from a two-dimensional image.

Ground Truth

In Ground Truth Sheung Yiu (HK/FI) interweaves archival imagery, documentary photography, experimental data and artistic work, to acquaint the reader with the mathematical models that provide us the tools to ‘resurrect’ trees from a two-dimensional image. Ground Truth highlights the complexity of seeing in the age of algorithms. What do we see when we are not around? What can we see when there is nothing there?

I am proud to present my curatorial collaboration with Samra Sabanovic.

I was there but you didn’t see me* is a series of research-based public interventions on photographic images curated by Samra Šabanović and Sheung Yiu. These interventions use images as starting points of inquiry about their indisputable impacts on philosophy, history, literature, technology, science and visual culture. Through prolonged looking and peripheral vision, the duo revisits images (or the lack of them) and situates them in new discourses that extends beyond visual arts. This involves doing double-takes on images seriously and regularly, writing footnotes on and around photographs to rediscover ‘what was there’ and ‘what was not seen’ at first glance.

Thank you @Luc Meiranesio for the awesome recruiting graphics he made for me. I am working on a project about images in science textbooks. Looking for science writers and 3D illustrators to collaborate.
