Professor and game designer Laureline Chiapello recently travelled to Toulouse to take part in the international colloquium Scénographies et couleurs : Arts, Audiovisuel, Cinéma et Design, organized by the LARA-SEPPIA laboratory. The colloquium brought together researchers and creators to discuss the aesthetic and symbolic issues of color in contemporary artistic practices.
Laureline Chiapello presented a paper entitled ” Scénographie et couleur dans le jeu vidéo CLTRS : réappropriation de la féminité en 3D”. In this paper, she explored the use of the color pink in a realistic video game environment, highlighting how this hue, often associated with gender stereotypes, can become a vehicle for critical and aesthetic reappropriation of femininity. Her research-creation approach highlights the expressive, narrative and political role of color in video games, particularly those with a feminist and experimental perspective.
