TITLE: Bikes Cycle
In just a few years, cycling has shifted from dangerous and low-end means of transportation to a contemporary lifestyle that is now fully integrated into the cityscape. Urban development and mentalities have evolved and bicycles are now everywhere.
My practice relies mainly on movement, on the fly or choreographed, during transportation, on its forms in photo and video and the three different blurs it prints on a sensor.
BIKES CYCLE is a series of images that was taken in Montreal and Paris around the clock and in all seasons will further expand with new trips, new encounters and two self published books (this vol.1 and upcoming vol.2).
AUTHOR: Jean-Christophe Yacono (Canada)
yako (Jean-Christophe Yacono) has developed a photographic and digital practice through various artistic projects. His works have been presented, among others, at the Digital Art Biennial (BIAN), at the International Festival of Films on Art (FIFA), at the Festival du Nouveau Cinéma (FNC), at the Cirque du Soleil, at the ArTV studio. of the PdA, at the Center Pompidou and at the Centrale Powerhouse gallery.
Since 1993, he has been interested in new forms of digital writing for screens and public spaces. It is through photography, interactive “new realities” and “freeze-frame” that he begins to reflect on the gesture, on the fly or choreographed, during movements, experiences or shows, on its forms on the image, on the sequences, on the movements and blurs that movement prints on a sensor.
yako is developing a practice in Media Arts through projects such as WONDERLAND (2008), a public performance of dance, immersive theater and live audiovisual creation, the interactive installation MUSICBOX 2 (2009) presented during the BIAN or the production of interactive video devices, short and medium formats such as FEAR IN MOTION (2019) presented at the Imperial during FIFA 38 and selected in several festivals.
