For his Cosmos project, the artist travelled around Europe, particularly in the countries of the former USSR, in search of Cosmos hotels. Built between the 1960s and the 1980s, these buildings bear witness to the modern or post-modern style. The artist evacuates all spatial and chronological reference points, recording details of the architecture and nature in the vicinity of the hotels. He works with a single colour, grey, in order to cancel out the seductive effects of the image.
