About

On an initial level theses pieces of work (constructions, performances, installations, photographs) that have as their departure point the idea of the recovery of the already used-wasted material, attempt to display prominently the visual potentialities of this material.

Within the realms of my research, questions around Physicality and physical gesture play a prominent role. I explore this physicality through the object, through the espace, through the movement, through the idea of construction. Currently, the research is centred around the ironically aesthetic, visual and poetic utopia of the notion of displacement and the notion of répétition as a linear need, automatic and mechanical, quotidian, almost tedious, coming from a production en masse. Almost unconscious and different in its acumulation. A systematic journey, a systematic action, a systematic from taken as a concept for reflection and questionning for possibility and impossibility.

This work both concerns and is inspired by ideas such a migration, discovery, scape, underdevelopment, struggle, reality and fiction. Amongst these, playfulness, humour and in a certain way chilhood are intercalated and justaposed with reality.

The notion of games, this idea of "play" effectively connected to irony, humour and serial production, functions on a political level as a testimony of questions around subjects as a répétition, hybrid, migration, nomadisme, displacement. The notion of game is used as a desguise in order to show the seriousness that is always hidden behind it. There is an intention to establish a balance between the superficiality of this "game" notion and its politicization. Something that appears funny and its (for me) political aspect. There is an interest in the duality/dichotomy of thèse works that develops into an opposition, a resistance.

And, finally, like a sound from far away, but always present, the memory of a home country and a collective past écho (or resonance) of life in the context of the present.
