About The Artwork

"Urban loneliness" is a questioning of the part of humanity that each of us builds with and in relation to others. Can we preserve intact this part of ourselves, passing so close to those fallen on the sidewalks of our cities and our shores? The consciousness we have of the strained thread of our life, intertwines with the broken threads of those of others. "The one who fades" is as much by himself as by me. Our eyes slip, we move on, move forward so that our consciences do not soak up the other one of which we do not know what to do. The plastic work begins with a photograph, testimony of the meeting. The bodies asleep and abandoned on the ground resemble land envelopes that their owners have renounced to protect, to preserve. The violence of this abandonment, however, is enveloped by an evanescent halo that causes sleep. The mind has moved away from all material reality; A light, ephemeral and protective veil envelops the individual for a few moments. « Solitude urbaine » est un questionnement sur la part d'humanité que chacun d'entre nous construit avec et en rapport aux autres. Peut-on préserver intact cette part de nous même, en passant si proche de celles déchues sur les trottoirs de nos métropoles et de nos rivages ? La conscience que nous avons du fil tendu de notre vie, s'entrelace avec les fils brisés de celles des autres. « Celui qui s'efface » l'est autant par lui même que par moi. Nos regards glissent, nous passons, allons de l'avant pour que nos consciences ne s'imprègnent pas trop de cet autre dont on ne sait que faire. Le travail plastique commence par une photographie, témoignage de la rencontre. Les corps endormis et abandonnés sur la chaussée ressemblent à des enveloppes terrestres que leurs propriétaires auraient renoncés à protéger, à préserver. La violence de cet abandon est cependant enveloppée par un halo évanescent que provoque le sommeil. L'esprit s'est éloigné de toute réalité matérielle ; Un voile léger, éphémère et protecteur enveloppe l'individu pour quelques instants encore.
