STATEMENTS
In this world, hands could be teeth, could be eyes, could be hair, could be mouth… Felt, paper, plastic, cardboard… are freehand cut. Nothing is removed so everything is useful and meaningful. Minimal flat cut pieces, expanded in space, become overgrown baroque volumes. Shapes face life in space or throw photographic performances and videos. Forms grow free in drawings, live their transformations in animations and invent absurd subjects in paintings. All is moving back and forth, from the studio to the street and experience to imagination. A space in between where each viewer is welcome to make his own interpretation. |
