"ID 2.100. sits precisely where my official self meets my invented selves. Seeking a French residence permit after becoming a refugee in 2022, I fed a Photomaton booth not my face but 100 avatars modelled on documentary images of displaced people. The state’s facial-recognition software certified these fictions while simultaneously archiving my real portrait—the 101st image. Each print therefore collapses the bureaucratic, the virtual and the biographical: a passport photo, a videogame skin and a war-time news image share the same fragile surface. By multiplying and glitching the portrait, ID 2.100. asks what remains of identity once it is flattened into data and scattered acrossdatabases, booths and metaverses."

The price shown is per single 10x15 cm print, not the whole installation.
