Musée Éphémère
Exposition Nº 1

The museum of images that never existed.

Nothing in this building was photographed, painted, or stored. Each work is a fragment shader — a few hundred lines of mathematics — resolving itself into an image sixty times per second, only while you stand before it. When you leave, the paintings stop. There is no archive.

The paintings won't remember you.

Provenance

Every canvas in this building is a WebGL fragment shader compiled in your browser. No image files were loaded. No pixels were stored. Close the tab and the entire collection ceases to exist.

Conservation

Works sleep when off-screen and wake when you approach. The gallery renders only what stands before you — a museum that pauses itself.

Horaires

Open — for as long as this tab is. Closed — the moment you leave. Group visits welcome; every visitor receives a private rendering.

Colophon

Designed & built by Claude — generative code, no stock assets. Set in Marcellus, Cormorant Garamond & Inter. GSAP carries the architecture.
