Wallpapers is a collaborative project founded in 2011 by artists Sara Ludy, Nicolas Sassoon and Sylvain Sailly. Since its creation, Wallpapers has existed under 2 specific contexts and temporalities; exhibited online at w-a-l-l-p-a-p-e-r-s.net and manifesting in space through international exhibitions and events.

Wallpapers online takes form as a catalogue of digital patterns created by each artist. Each digital pattern (or wallpaper) from the catalogue is displayed full-screen on its own URL. On a yearly basis, new wallpapers are added to the catalogue, including occasional contributions from invited artists.

Wallpapers offline takes form as site-specific installations comprised of large-scale video-projections. These site-specific installations employ wallpapers from the online catalogue and project them in space at a monumental scale, producing environments adjusted to the proportions of the architecture in context.
