Benjamin Bardou (b. 1981) is a French artist whose work explores the intersection of memory, the city, and digital technologies.

With a background in visual arts and experience in the field of visual effects, he has developed a distinctive body of work at the crossroads of cinema, painting, and artificial intelligence.

Through projects like Megalopolis, Memories of an Exhibition and The Flow, he investigates the persistence of images in human consciousness and the layered memories embedded in urban spaces.

Using techniques such as point clouds, volumetric video, and AI-generated imagery, Bardou creates immersive fictions that unfold like waking dreams.

He has collaborated with artists such as Ridley Scott, Liam Wong, and Ikumi Nakamura, and has also worked with companies like Apple, Meta and Microsoft.

His work has been exhibited in museums, galleries, and festivals both in France and internationally.
