Côme ALGADAFE

“I develop an installation, sculptural and video-based practice rooted in wandering, collecting and recontextualising fragments. My work explores the areas of creation, friction and ambiguity that run through the environment, society and materiality, considering them as liminal spaces to be inhabited rather than resolved.

Both physical and electronic, I attach as much importance to urban wandering as to contemporary forms of drifting such as doomscrolling or gaming. Objects, ruins, architectures, glitches and phrases then compose a preliminary writing that feeds unstable structures, where the material and the immaterial merge.

Through assemblages, archives of language, images and video, I stage unstable forms of memory and trace, where ruins, construction sites and language become places of passage between several temporalities.”
