“The NuméricA festival invites the digital community of the Annecy region to an event that lasts a weekend. On this occasion, imagespassages presents the work of Tanguy Benoit, who uses contemporary tools to question the world and images that surround us. His piece Tumbling Tumbleweed, Quieter Than Silence is a virtual universe designed using computer tools. It depicts the migration of a Russian thistle or tumbleweed, an invasive plant that colonized the American continent during the conquest of the West. Presented within a video game, this digital environment expresses the concept of territorial appropriation and re-examines its Hollywood representations.” (Pauline Boucharlat and Tanguy Benoit, 2024)
