LucFosther Diop, LesFl@mmes D’Ouvertures, QUEBEC

LA CHAMBRE BLANCHE is proud to welcome Cameroonian artist LucFosther Diop for a research and creation residency within the framework of the grant program Unesco-Aschberg for French Africa. Favoring a poetic point of view, LucFosther Diop launches a research project on neocolonialism and imperialism, and their social, political, cultural, historical, geographic, and urban influences and repercussions. Titled LesFl@mmes D’Ouvertures, this project marks a research period advocating digital and media experimentation – through photography, video, recycled web documents – aiming to build an indepen- dant web platform. The final work, hosted on LA CHAMBRE BLANCHE’s web site for six months, will include archives from all the stages of creation – ephemeral interventions, video performances, recycling files found on the web and diversion of their content’s meaning.

LucFosther Diop is a Cameroonian conceptual artist, born in Douala in 1980. He graduated in fine arts from University of Yaoundé 1 in 2003.
