The works of Claire Williams are at the crossroads of craft, sound and electronics. Her artworks try to sense the multiple variations in our electromagnetic spectrum taking the form of art installations, making tangible the electromagnetic movements of our magnetosphere. Claire Williams is currently working on the exploration of ether, exploring
our relationship to the world of the invisible by reviving abandoned
leads of certain scientific and researches of the mid 19th century.
The Telepathes
As part of the Capture #2 exhibition to be held at Le Pavillon from 23 September 2023 to 14 January 2024
The Telepathes is an installation that explores sleepy, hypnotic or comatose states. It questions the materiality of our consciousness in what it has in common with that of the machines we fashion in the image of our neural activity. The Telepathes proposes to explore these spectral states through the recorded neuronal activity of people in a deep coma by imagining a ‘telepathic device’ in which their electrical activity radiates and navigates in the form of waves and sounds. In this way, Claire Williams imagines a kind of parallel collective consciousness, a spectral world made up of our electromagnetic and psychic activities.
