Everything is Real shows the reddest apples, the greenest call centers, the server rooms with the most cables, the smiliest employees, the delivery drivers with their most beautiful parcels, the most efficient volunteers, the biggest mountains of waste - but pushes them to the extreme of stereotyping: insensitively, stereotypes go to extremes.

Stéphane Degoutin is an artist and researcher. His work explores “dark systems,” the structures that often go unnoticed yet organize our lives: from air conditioning to international airports, from music for houseplants to urban infrastructures. He undertakes a form of reverse engineering of these hidden logics, in order to imagine other ways of thinking and acting. Gwenola Wagon is an artist and researcher. She is a University Professor and teaches at the Sorbonne School of Arts at Paris 1 University. Through installations, films, performances and books, she imagines alternative and paradoxical narratives for thinking about the contemporary digital world.
