Artist Statement
On a table, visitors have access to a laser projected keyboard which allows them to tap away directly on this table. When they type letters, strange signs appear on a projection in front of them. These messages, the translation of which is based on Morse code, will then be sent into space. Like bottles cast into the ocean or messages spread by space agencies, they are part of an attempt to reach distant civilizations that are outside our territories or temporal realities. The project thus lead one to reflect on a time and space that goes beyond the limits of a self or an individual existence.
