Laurent Montaron was born in 1972 in Verneuilsur-Avre, he lives and works in Paris. His work question the tools that shape our representations. By revealing the sometimes irrational element of belief involved with emerging techniques ; his works remind us that while technology has provided us with new means of perceiving and representing reality it has not necessarily brought us closer from ‘the truth’ for it has also given rise to new ways for questioning paradoxes attendant on our awareness of modernity.
