Alexis Destoop
Alexis Destoop (1971, BE) Lives and works in Sydney, AU and Brussels, BE. He has a background in photography and philosophy. His productions examine the experience of time, elements of storytelling and procedures of identification and memory. Informed by the strategies of minimalism, his works, often seductive in appearance, function as lures that explore the deceptive nature of the images. Destoop regularly works in collaboration with writers, performers and musicians. His latest projects re-signifies Australia’s desert landscape and its history through a science fiction narrative, resonating with colonial history and the omnipresent actuality of the mining industry, and questions the relationship between fiction and reality.
