This edition, Lumière, is a fragment of Bustamante’s large-size work of the same title that was shown in the "Pavilion of Amazones" in Venice. Derived from the internet and seemingly appearing out of the blue, this spectral image refers the viewer to a diffuse perception of the real, existing somewhere between photography and painting – an ambiguous appearance projected against the wall.
