'Espace Raynaud' was exhibited at the Biennale di Venezia 1993, in the French pavilion. This work is constructed, all over the wall of the room, with many tile-plates of which showed the photo-images of skull each. Andy Warhol had already made such work, consisted with the repitition of skull images. Such image of skull have been drawn in European art repeatedly. One characteristic superposition of this image seems to appear in this 'Espace'. Photography is work of repetition in its essence. Photography, repetition of image of the world, may be also repetition of works of its own, because it could be copied. So we see a multiplicity of repetition. 'Espace' violate drastically the custom that art work should be original one. And 'Espace' is total spacial work of tiles inside three dimensional room. Linda Hutcheon says that modern art forms seem to refer to and reproduce themselves. She called this trend 'Parody'. Is 'Espace' Parody in its repetition of previous styles of art works, and structural modeling process? Hutcheon says that Parody address to "text's situation in the world" finally. 'Espace' address to the world as one ironical work the function of repetitive photo-image.
