Laurent and Cyrille Berger have been collaborating since 2006 under the name Berger&Berger producing a body of work located at the crossroads of architecture and visual arts. Altered States stages a series of pieces bound by the phenomena of disappearance and emergence.
It is an exhibition that works in the manner of a transfer, suspending time, disturbing geography. Altered States presents "speculative objects"; objects and sculptures which are real or (and) fictional. Objects of organic or mineral origin which do not fulfill a function but produce their own physiological and psychological constraints. It is a "real" exhibition (with a wooden floor, struts, a map, images...) which produces a "disturbing unreality". These pieces to not constitute a succession of disparate arrangements but a set of entities making up a singular domestic space.
