The works of Mathieu Briand, articulating imaginary, real and virtual, transport the visitor, make them travel without moving, opening on a world both outside and without limits but drawn from reality.

For the past three years Mathieu Briand has been working on a project call A-droyx .

Inspired by Philip K. Dick, the artist seems to ask the same question as one of those famous and prophetic novels: "do androids dream of electric sheep?" And add "Are we not, finally, the dream of this android? "

Mathieu Briand A-droyx forms are not based on the identical reproduction of the human, the perfect likeness or the impeccable imitation for maximum servitude and functionality, but on a psychological interaction which derives from The Uncanny Valley*, Unheimlich, and wabi-sabi concepts.

It is no longer a question of making "more human than human" but of making "the human more human".

A-droyx have the appearance of human body parts and have the size of a child. They evolve at will in the space whatever it is. They can be considered residents.
