High Dynamic Range now on view through Sept 14. Dual presentation featuring K-Detox triptych & fabric prints by @loufauroux and new SkyMall inspired sculptures by @ntschk ‼️♥️ High Dynamic Range asks what ornament, obsession, and memory survive when technological fantasy hardens into commodity and only its after-image remains to navigate by. Lou Fauroux and Claire Hentschker's works bracket the arc of digital experience from pre-smartphone optimism to post-internet aftermath. Fauroux predicts a post-connectivity landscape through the lens of wellness capitalism. Their three-channel work depicts the K-Detox Center, a fictional Kardashian-branded clinic where former internet users undergo rehabilitation after global networks collapse. The installation treats digital withdrawal as both trauma and commodity, exploring how late capitalism might monetize even its own technological failures.

Opening tomorrow: HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE ! A dual exhibition featuring new work by Claire Hentschker and Lou Fauroux. Join us for the opening reception from 6-8pm here at the Spill 180 gallery/garden. DM for address. From the press release: “Lou Fauroux and Claire Hentschker’s works bracket the arc of digital experience from pre-smartphone optimism to post-internet aftermath. Fauroux predicts a post-connectivity landscape through the lens of wellness capitalism. Their three-channel work depicts the K-Detox Center, a fictional Kardashian-branded clinic where former internet users undergo rehabilitation after global networks collapse. The installation treats digital withdrawal as both trauma and commodity, exploring how late capitalism might monetize even its own technological failures. Hentschker exhumes the material culture of 1990s consumer technology, reconstructing SkyMall gadgets as ornamental objects. Working from original print advertisements, she translates these absurd promises into shimmering 3D forms. The sculptures propose late-analog gadgetry as the site of a final consumer fantasy: a moment when technology promised delight you could gift, hold, or ignore.” @loufauroux @ntschk

Spill 180 is thrilled to announce our next show, High Dynamic Range, a dual presentation featuring Claire Hentschker & Lou Fauroux. Please save the date for the opening reception on August 22nd from 6-8pm here at the Spill 180 gallery/garden. Lou Fauroux (@loufauroux ) lives and works in Saint-Ouen. Through a practice of video, sculpture, installation and 3D, she questions the ethical challenges of artificial intelligence and virtual technologies and their impacts on humans. She decrypts the social structures of power through pop culture and medias such as music and video games. Incorporating her queer experience in the multiple layers of narration and representation, she reappropriates the images she grew up with by building new mythologies around them. Lou Fauroux has presented her video works and films at institutions, galleries, and fairs such as Palais de Tokyo, Paris; MoMA, New York ; Film at Lincoln Center, New York ; Centre Pompidou, Paris ; Art Basel, Paris; FRAC Poitou-Charentes, Angoulême ; Forde, Geneva ; Fondation Pernod-Richard, Paris; Chantal Crousel, Paris ; Exo Exo, Paris ; Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles, Paris. Claire Hentschker (@ntschk ) turns the broken promises of the beauty aisle and electronics store into a single toolkit, recasting consumer technologies as playful, opulent craft material. Rhinestones, nail resin, and off‑the‑shelf apps mingle with laminators, Xerox machines, and catalog gadgets to yield opulent sculptures, spectral digital reconstructions, and participatory events that favor joyful misuse over seamless function. She co‑founded LARPA, and was an artist in residence at Cartier’s Brooklyn Retail Innovation Lab in 2018. Her work has been featured by the Peabody Essex Museum, Carnegie Museum of Art, Fotomuseum Winterthur, MUTEK, and Currents New Media, with commissions from brands like Apple, Franzia, RAOs and the American Museum of Natural History. @larpa.mill @exoexo.xyz
