Yacine Aït Kaci (YAK) – visual creator
Yacine AIT KACI, born in 1973, graduated from the Ecole Nationale des Arts décoratifs in Paris where he received a multidisciplinary education on multimedia. He signs, first as artistic director then as producer, a series of multimedia and television creations for the Centre Pompidou, the Louvre, Yves Saint-Laurent, and the TV program Archimède on ARTE.
Yacine meets Naziha Mestaoui in 2000, and they decide to join their respective creative skills. Founded in Paris, Electronic Shadow is a hybrid multimedia and design platform whose activity is based on research and innovation, both in terms of art through numerous exhibitions (MoMA in NY, Centre Georges Pompidou, Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, la Villette, Japan Media Art Festival, etc.), and technology (patented space/image projection system). The creation of Double Vision in 2006, born of the meeting with Carolyn and coproduced by IDEALID, enabled Electronic Shadow to explore a new artistic field and new perspectives of creation.
