Huyghe’s 2014 eerie video installation Untitled (Human Mask) grew in popularity after being exhibited at many prestigious galleries, such as Hauser & Wirth in London.
It was shot in a landscape deserted after the nuclear disaster and tsunami of Fukushima in March 2011, where a monkey with a human mask seems to be the last remaining resident. Already confused and attracted?
Then trap yourself in a world between fiction and reality, life and death, as well as humanity and animality.
