Hugo Comte: Testament

Galerie Hussenot, in partnership with La Cité, presents the first solo show of French photographer Hugo Comte: "Testament", a series of 15 monumental photographs, made in collaboration with the London based stylist Ibrahim Kamara.

Hussenot, 5 bis rue des Haudriettes, 75003 Paris

The series of artworks “Testament” explores the belief-generating power of images and the construction of new mythologies. By transferring, remixing, and inverting signs and values from a visual heritage taken for granted, it questions what underlies it, and fertilizes it with new potential narratives by bringing in identities long left out of the picture.

The rich compositions, anachronistic and with a rigorous aestheticism, freely associate various iconographic references – from ancient mythology and sacred art to pop culture – and assert a freedom of rereading without nevertheless claiming to want to place itself in a posture of rewriting history.
