Portraits for the wall

Two eyes, a nose (two holes), a mouth (two lips) and two ears are constructed piece by piece in the formation of the holey surface of the neutralized organism on an organized surface. After interrogating and eliminating all non-visual forces (religious, social, political, and cultural codes) from the face, and playing upon a fundamental forgetting, what remains is the other function of the structure, which is to be hung on a wall. In this project Jacques adapts old and specific blended semiotics to make a yet undetermined muter regime, “a real that is yet to come.”
