Twisted Objects is an ode to popular culture in which obsolete generic ephemera are warped and distorted, reflecting an obsessive perception of mundane objects. Shot without CJI effects, Twisted Objects was exhibited in several cities such as Paris, Berlin, Madrid and Vienna. A special shortened edit was released in 2014 in collaboration with Nowness.

Ill-Studio - FETISHISTIC SCOPOPHILIA

«Ill-Studio? I first considered them as “contemporary aesthetes”. This could look like an oxymoron, a contradiction : the aesthete, in its old and dandy-est sense, is all about disdain for democratic productions, industrial civilization artifacts and popular surfaces, and for this crowd he snubs with his aristocratic taste.

You can find this in Ill-Studio’s work since 2007: whatever they’re asked to work on, they showcase the evidence of a cult of beauty, managing to combine minimalism with that kind of preciousness that may lead to esotericism.

The style is their style, before displaying any technical know-how or graphico-conceptual protocol. Except that this true “hyperesthesia disease” (illness?) does not only apply to quality items, but to some indifferently high or low forms of contemporary culture. This is the artistic direction that will be showcased during their exhibition Fetishistic Scopophilia : highlighting visual obsessions, to exhibit references, to taste raw materials.»

Ill-Studio - Moodcyclopedia

The goal of this book was to present part of the "raw inspiration material" used by Ill-Studio team between 2007 and 2010 for creative purposes.

This material covers all kinds of fields and moments such as art, fashion, music, architecture, literature, geography, science, and popular culture regardless of its origin, importance or meaning. Each reference was archived in visual form as a catalogue of not-so-general knowledge that is key to Ill-Studio’s creative process, whether in a central manner or as an Ariadne's thread leading to yet another idea.
