Oh Lord! is the result of a collaboration with the Paris-Meudon Observatory and the Institute of Planetology and Astrophysics of Grenoble, drawing from various solar observation databases, including some provided by NASA. This installation invites us to revisit and question the fascination with the sun that we have inherited from our ancestors. Since the dawn of humanity, the sun has played multiple roles — as the keystone of cosmic order, a tool of political legitimacy, a force of social unity, and even a precursor to monotheism. Today, in the face of environmental and energy challenges, it embodies both our deepest fears and greatest hopes. The installation reflects not only scientific and technological advances but also our enduring fascination with this celestial body.
