Shooting Gallery‘s own C215 recently opened a new show in Paris titled, PROPHÈTES, located within the Saint-Louis – Pitie-Salpêtrière Chapel. Experimenting with a new technique, the artist uses stained glass made from original paintings, which is then baked and mounted onto light boxes.

“In this particular space, C215 presents a mystical work, embodied by children of all countries. The portraits installed in the Chapel establish a dialogue with the existing religious works, the statues, and stained glass windows. Whereas religious iconography tries to create an ‘opening’ to the realm of the divine, providing the believers with an escape from the mundaneness of earthly life, C215’s children draw the viewers back into everyday living, reminding them, in a way, that heaven and hell are to be found within this world.” – Galerie Itinerrance
