LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON

The work was made during an exhibition in a Parisian apartment. I included a little note in the exhibition’s announcement asking visitors to bring their parents and grandparents, children and grandchildren—or any available family member—to the exhibition opening in the hope of gathering a group of visitors comprised of generations beyond the usual contemporary art audience. During the opening, I composed ‘new families’ by arranging people who did not know each other as if they were related and photographed them in a basic photo-studio like set-up installed in the exhibition space.
