peinture collaborative r\u00e9alis\u00e9e avec l\u2019association\/collective Les Ateliers, Clermont-Ferrand

Une dizaine d\u2019intervenants ont peint chacun un hexagone sur ce panneau, construisant ainsi le motif d\u2019un sol, tissant un canevas de lignes donnant une structure visuelle. M\u00eame si le support a subit quelques violences, comme des trous donnant sur le mur derri\u00e8re, la structure reste intacte \u00e0 l\u2019instar d\u2019un nid d\u2019abeilles : une des formes les plus solide que l\u2019on puisse trouver dans la nature.

Forme et asso<\/em>, 2017
acrylic, oil, and spray paint on wood, 237 x 121 cm
collaborative painting with the artist association\/collective Les Ateliers, Clermont-Ferrand

Ten contributors each painted a hexagon on this panel, constructing a motif referencing floor tiling, weaving a fabric of lines that made a visual structure. Though the support was subjected to gestures that threatened its substance, such as physical holes made in the panel that give a view of the wall behind, the overall configuration is left intact in the manner of a beehive, one of the most solid structures one can find in nature.

Les outils ont \u00e9t\u00e9 choisis\npour leur usage dans la vie domestique, surtout pour leur rapport\navec des rituels de nettoyage et ramassage de poussi\u00e8re : trace de\nla d\u00e9gradation de la nature et des corps humains.

acrylique sur 11 panneaux amovibles, 330 x 1000 cm au total

La disparition a \u00e9t\u00e9 un sujet important pour cette exposition \u00e0 La Serre. Cette peinture \u00e9ph\u00e9m\u00e8re a pour th\u00e8me les feuillages du contexte, avec une repr\u00e9sentation con\u00e7ue par des essais de fatigue r\u00e9tinienne exp\u00e9riment\u00e9s dans cet espace. Pour arriver au terme de cet effet visuel, cette peinture a \u00e9t\u00e9 effac\u00e9e, recouverte de blanc \u00e0 la fin des cinq semaines d\u2019exposition.

Persistence<\/em>, 2017
acrylic on 11 movable panels, 330 x 1000 cm total

Disappearance was an important subject for this exhibition at La Serre. This ephemeral painting is based on the leaves in context, with a representation informed by an experience of retinal fatigue in the space. To push this visual effect to its term, the painting was erased, covered with white at the end of the five-week show.
