" I create digital virtual worlds to tear a window in what we feel to be true. Skyscraper forests cohabitate with suburban deserts and open horizons. The appearance of anything being real is deceptive: all of this is imaginary, viral, or mathematically altered. From the fascination/vertigo of looking, maybe we'll rethink our occupation of territories and natural resource usage. " Paul-Émile Rioux (2022) Digital artist Paul-Émile Rioux lives and works in Montreal, Canada. He first studies animation at Concordia University, has a career as professional photographer and, in parallel, starts exploring 3D software in the early 90s. Creating virtual worlds rapidly becomes his passionate main pursuit. From the onset, Rioux has no intention of matching IRL expectations of what digital art 'should' look like, but strives to play with our notions of what's real, what's not, how we remember, and how we infer meaning into imaginary visual constructs. He uses his expertise in photography to make virtual matrices on the computer. He seeds the code with new materials, causes accidents and tampers with mathematical logic to generate luminous 'grounds', which he then explores as if he were venturing into a city, a desert, or a field. 'These panoramas do not correspond to a vision, he says: they are space-time cuts from digital matter transformed by algorithms. I don't draw these places: I implement possibilities.' ............................................................. Paul-Émile Rioux étudie le cinéma à l’Université Concordia puis la communication à l’Université du Québec à Montréal. Le développement des nouveaux médias numériques combinés à l’expertise acquise par l’exercice de la photographie professionnelle donne aujourd’hui naissance à une œuvre puissante et visionnaire. L’artiste propose des panoramas grandioses offrant à voir des territoires urbains qui se déploient à l’infini. Ces images, d’apparence photographique, mais entièrement élaborées à partir d’une matrice numérique, évoquent une vision futuriste de notre monde. Elles ne sont pas sans rappeler les œuvres issues de la littérature et du cinéma de science-fiction, ce qui leur confère la puissance évocatrice de l’archétype. Les panoramas créés par Paul-Émile Rioux se distinguent par ailleurs nettement de l’imagerie de la science-fiction par le fait qu’elles sont entièrement constituées d’éléments abstraits.
