«Glory» / Galerie Charlot 2016

The gaze of Parisians is often turned inward, and the city can seem like a world only concerned with itself. The cachet of living there is a source of pride, and yet for many the city is a trap: a labyrinth with no exit.  Rather than the warm glow of human contact it’s the moonlit gleam on empty avenues that makes Paris the City of Light.

For the basis of the work the artist used an old globe and created a map of Paris on its surface.  The globe appears dull and uniform at first, but once the inner light is activated by a foot switch the map is illuminated and Paris is revealed

Root
Each life coalesces in layers and has a story to be told if you can find it.
We make our own memories, ring by ring, until the day comes when we,
too, are uprooted.

Back to Black
A playground of patterns, cycling through infinity, that needs one human
element among its geometric ones.

100 Pieces
It’s not too difficult to generate the generic: just follow the recipe,
sprinkle a bit of this or that, and you can cook up whatever
you want.

Memo
Russia, 1939. A state run by terror. A population in despair.
But even in darkness threads of light are visible, in paper and ink.

Towers
A cycle of construction and deconstruction, repeating ad infinitum,
that produces towers like melodies in a set of musical variations.

A voyeur’s fantasy shimmers into view, but to be a witness here you must also be a culprit.
A true hands-on experience…

No fowl play here… just a little rustic charm pecking in the urban grit.

Survival of the Fittest
Just because you climb the corporate ladder from the inside,
instead of scaling the walls from without, doesn’t mean
you’re any less of a beast.

Cycle of Revenge
Push past silent comfort zones and playfulness unravels into cruelty.
Payback takes on a life of its own, ceaselessly feeding upon itself.
