“PICTOGRAMS AND ANECDOTES” LECTURE, 12/2021

25/11/21, MUSÉE DES BEAUX-ARTS, ROUEN

 

An invitation by Tania Vladova to accompany the exhibition Display Home at the Hus – ESADHaR.

 

For a long time, my work was about reducing things to their essence: I decant the spirit of down-at-heel places into pictograms. Then I conduct pseudo tourist campaigns to promote these unlikely destinations. One day, I asked myself about the ideological implications of my work and suddenly, it became urgent to rethink the whole undertaking.

 

This lecture includes both pictures and stories to describe an ongoing metamorphosis.
