Born 1972 in Sarcelles, France Lives and works in Paris, France For the ‘Sunflowers’ series, Dove Allouche borrows the technique of mirror making: scattering pure silver and tin onto large Cibachrome sheets and sweeping his hand across the surface. The photosensitive sheets are exposed to different degrees of light, revealing the ghostly traces of the artist’s movements. Moving from darkness to light, ‘Solar Flares’ is a series of graphite drawings based on photographs of solar irradiance imperceptible to the naked eye; their halos represent a mixture of gases. Allouche frames each drawing with a unique sheet of blown glass which corresponds to one of the elemental colors found in the hottest parts of the sun’s corona during a solar eruption. In his quest to visualize the unseen, Dove Allouche combines photography, drawing and printmaking, often employing scientific or ancient photographic techniques to bring to light otherwise invisible phenomena.
