Michel Pou Díaz: error [beauty machine]

„In the series error [beauty machine] I assume the image aberrations of digital machines as a form of beauty. Sometimes I add or amplify distortions and deform the image content. Image noise and a narrative broken down into single frames merge into a serial coherence.  A language emerges between my action and that of the machine. A new landscape or a new sound then reflect on a vision of the world in which seemingly everything wants to be beautiful, perfect and hardly questionable.“
