La vitre est belle , 2020

Un homme charismatique, viril, adulé par les femmes. Il utilise un produit qui le rend irrésistible à leurs yeux.
Le pouvoir du marketing et de l’image est mis en exergue par cette œuvre. En créant une pub inspirée des codes de l’industrie cosmétique, nous questionnons notre libre-arbitre lors de nos achats face au marketing.
Le jus d’un parfum représente seulement 2% de son prix final, le reste étant principalement dédié au marketing. Il est donc quasiment aussi bon marché à produire qu’un simple produit ménager (1€ de différence en terme de cout/bouteille).

En tirant les ficelles de nos envies, les grandes industries créent et conditionnent nos pulsions d’achat.
A l’heure d’une prise de conscience générale, sommes-nous toujours des pantins des grandes industries ?

A charismatic, virile man, adored by women. He uses a product that makes him irresistible to them.
The power of marketing and image is highlighted by this work. By creating an advertisement inspired by the codes of the cosmetics industry, we question our free will when purchasing.
The juice of a perfume represents only 2% of its final price, the rest being mainly dedicated to marketing. It is therefore almost as cheap to produce as a simple household product (1€ difference in terms of cost/bottle).

By pulling the strings of our desires, the big industries create and condition our buying impulses.
At a time of general awareness, are we still puppets of big industries?

To discuss with the artists, connect on Google Hangouts (the link is available at the entrance of the exhibition)

Thank you!
