Théo Hennequin

Théo Hennequin is a Brussels-based graphic designer and visual artist with a conceptually driven practice spanning culture, music and sport. He collaborates with institutions, artists, festivals and collectives, from major museums to independent structures, to articulate distinctive positions across print, digital and motion.

His practice is rooted in the circulation of images and forms between swiss rigour, experimental layering and popular cultures, from the football stand to the mountain trail, using the distance between them as a space for inquiry.

About

Globalement sous surveillance

2021, Cambrai

Collaborateur·ices : Alexandre Vieren, Alan Romeira, Margaux Droite

Globally Under Surveillance is a digital installation that explores contemporary dynamics of surveillance in an era of legislative and technological control mechanisms. The project takes the form of an interactive digital installation in which every movement made by the viewer is detected and potentially ‘monitored’, creating an experience in which the audience’s interaction triggers visual elements — texts and images documenting, for example, the blurring of law enforcement officers, the deployment of drones or the police presence in public spaces.

Two screens from the installation *Globalement sous surveillance*, both entirely red: ‘Use of drones’, showing a 3D drone viewed from the front, and ‘Armed plainclothes police officers’, showing a 3D figure with a shaved head, wearing a vest and shorts, pointing an object forwards; each screen is accompanied by a short text on the proposed ‘global security’ bill
Two further screens in the installation, in red and blue: ‘Municipal police operations’, showing two 3D officers standing in front of concrete blocks, and ‘The use of images of law enforcement officers’, in which five silhouettes of officers are blurred; each screen is accompanied by a text referring to a clause in the draft bill
Two photographs of the installation projected onto a wall in a dark room, bathed in red light: at the top, the welcome screen with a blue outline around the title, featuring the instructions, beneath a stylised hand and a red shape; at the bottom, the ‘Armed plainclothes police officers’ screen and its 3D character
Two photographs of a member of the audience in a checked shirt standing in front of the installation’s projection, in a red room: in the top photograph, he is standing in front of two points of light on the wall; in the bottom photograph, he raises his arm, revealing the screen displaying ‘The use of images by the police’, showing five blurred officers
