François Vogel, Still from Twisted, Reverse Wave, ENTRO_PY (series)
We are pleased to announce the upcoming release of Entro_py, a new video-based series by François Vogel, launching on Verse on July 30.
Comprising twenty short video works, Entro_py unfolds as a precise investigation into the elasticity of perception. Vogel activates distortion, duration, and movement as sculptural components of a temporal field, building each video through embodied gestures that restructure the linear camera frame into a site of dynamic transformation.
The works emerge from a technique rooted in artisanal control. Vogel employs custom-developed tools within 3D modeling environments, shaping slices of space-time from within the footage itself. Every frame is built through internal modulation, avoiding compositing or artificial effects. The process maintains a material continuity that amplifies the tension between physical presence and perceptual mutation.

Unlike automated or AI-based workflows, Vogel’s method is entirely handcrafted, emphasizing direct manipulation over generative systems.
Each video engages the viewer in an architecture of vision where the body, the lens, and the editing timeline function as one interdependent structure. Vogel’s approach fuses choreography and image construction, revealing a space in which the visual field becomes elastic, layered, and structurally unstable.
The twenty 1/1 editions will be released via English auction, available for 48 hours on Verse starting July 30 at 7:00 PM CEST / 1:00 PM EDT.
