In a world formed by the spectacle of perfect illusions, the king of mediation travels through the lens to fight an anti-image cult that threatens a new generation.

Growing up inside the spectacle of perfect illusions, AL and AL’s eight-and-a-half-year-old niece has featured in over 80 modelling pictures. Interstellar Stella maps out a journey through her pictures in order to explore what it is to grow up living and working on both sides of the mediated glass. Looking through the mirror of technology. AL and AL stage a parallax narcissus and trace the origins of paparazzi by appropriating a sequence from Fellini’s La Dolce Vita, which is where the profession of celebrity photography was first given a name. AL and AL’s niece was born in 1997, the year Princess Diana was killed in the Place d’Alma underpass in Paris. This event marks another point in the story of paparazzi and its relationship with the most photographed woman in the world. Interstellar Stella weaves together these curious associations in order to discover the secret project of photography.
