Bernier has had expositions in Brussels gal. Vedovi, Paris gal. Parisud, Lausanne gal. Synopsism, and London Carpenterworkshop gal.
FLOWER SERIAL KILLER
– 2000 / 00:03:00'
Flowers Serial Killer tricks us for a moment into believe we're watching a snuff movie, then, turns the tables on the viewer so they become the Peeping Tom. In this film, innocent roses are tortured and executed freely. According to the artist, "the amplification of cruelty by the method" is meant to juxtapose and be ironic and critical of our time period. The theme of flowers as martyrs is masterly summarized through the spirit of this "artist-surgeon", who is, at the same time, fun and daring.
