About this artwork
"In some sense, this dynamic shift is the move from the single organism to the extension of organistic metaphors at the social scale, where collectivities are treated as single entities, as unitary and predictable minds or metabolisms, with the converse effect that both – the individual and social – dissolve into collections of data points, ready for algorithmic computation and re-conditioning. In front of one painting, we are placed amidst the mass of expectant figures: if these were an actual scene that the artist witnessed, it might be that the crowd saw itself mirrored in the blank surface of screen that is turned off. That screen is also spent, extinguished, unable to channel information or instruction, as apathetic as a black square on the wall of a museum, awaiting perhaps the passage of groups of visiting students." (Excerpt from text by Mihnea Mircan about the solo exhibition of Achraf Touloub at Galeria Plan B, Berlin)
