ARTIST NUMEN / FOR USE

Numen/For Use is an art collective led by product designers Sven Jonke, Christoph Katzler and Nikola Radeljković. Their artwork "Lines of Flight" refers to the act of fleeing, eluding and disappearing into the distance. Created for the dreamers of the new and unknown, it speaks of an urge not for conflict but for difference and the nomadic quest for freedom in all its forms.

"Our idea of a waking dream was always one of a habitable utopia, of an alternative space and a speculative way of life", says Numen/For Use. "Such dreams are a spatial wild frontier not yet colonised by reason, prototyping the future we want to live in."

Dreams start in Paris – and they continue in Singapore. For Singapore Art Week 2022, Cyril’s artwork “Remember your Dreams” was on show in the city of dreams at the Promontory @ Marina Bay, 21–29 January 2022.

With “Remember your dreams” French artist Cyril Lancelin has created an artwork that invites the viewer to pause for a moment and get lost in its optimistic color and surprising structure. Take some time to breathe. Transcend the moment. Remember your dreams.

Lancelin’s piece is the first commissioned work for “The Art of Dreams”, Porsche’s new global series of immersive art and design experiences. It was first shown in the heart of Paris at Palais Galliera Musée de la mode de la Ville de Paris, 15–24 October 2021. The piece forms a surreal environment, inviting viewers to step out of their everyday reality and become aware of their own dreams again. If you know your dreams you can make them reality.

ARTIST Cyril Lancelin

develops a hybrid work made up of sculptures, immersive installations, drawings, virtual experiences and videos that forge links between the physical and the fictional. It is from a plastic vocabulary based on primitive geometry that he links architecture and the human body, the everyday and the functional, the perennial and the ephemeral, science and nature.

His practice is shaped by immersion and movement, by the porosity of limits, by innovation, by a search for a world that is half data, half real. The notions of repetition and parametric generation are recurring themes in his work. It anticipates our passage into a world of multiplied and shared data. The artist sets up a connected territory through a conceptual dialogue between his practices and the experience of the public. Digital or real, his works offer an essentially optimistic vision, drawing an artificial and experiential landscape.

He lives and works in Lyon.
