Into two
Art-science creation realized by magnetic resonance and grayscale printing on laminated glass - Polyptych of twenty pieces (60 cm × 200 cm).
Nudity of the body under the clothes; Intimacy of the being under the skin; Deux d'en d'eux explores the inside of two people to put outside their inside; to untangle their mutual entanglement; to catch their common dynamics and let these fragile hearts beat.
Deux d'en d'eux is the exploded portrait of an embrace giving back to space what it stole from time during the tiny duration of the free induction decay signal emitted by the nuclear spins of the hydrogen atoms of the water molecules composing living organisms. Two of them is a suspended living body to body. The hearts still beat and the world still breathes.

Since the first X-ray photograph was taken in 1895, ultrasound, nuclear imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), optical imaging and, more recently, magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG) have crossed our skin every day. All these medical imaging techniques allow us to discover what is going on inside our body and to follow the functioning of our organs live. With functional MRI, it is even possible to visualize the very activity of our brain.
With their underlying physical principles, Ikse Maître wants to question what these techniques allow us to see beyond human perception to discuss what we perceive in the bodies that medical images show us and what we perceive through these images of the body's interior. This intrusion into our intimacy invites us to reflect on the way in which these learned eyes are capable of modifying the representation that we have of our own body.
Two in them is a creation of Ikse Master; an opening of Le sas, science-art-society group ; a production of La métonymie, in partnership with IR4M, the IAS, the CNRS and Université Paris-Sud.
Work and production in progress.
