Simon "Raion" Lavi, was born in France and lived in the United States for twenty years. Simon's work focuses on the interplay between artificial intelligence and photography since 2021. He works with post-photographic mise en scène to explore the shifting relationship between fictitious characters and their environment.
Employing cutting-edge technologies, he crafts images that defy conventional notions of reality and perception, seeking a delicate balance between serenity and the chaos of the human condition. Lavi's body of work has been exhibited internationally at the Rencontres d'Arles (2023), and ParisPhoto 2023, and is part of private collections around the globe.
