Hors-sol
Solo show, David Bloch Gallery (Marrakech)
“In continuity and as an echo of the last exhibition ” Urban Jealousy ” in 2017, I became an architect of a modern city invaded by a binary stream, pierced by waves and algorithms. Conductor organizing muffed sounds of fragments of letters, these proto-alphabets deformed by the acceleration experienced by our urban ensembles and their inhabitants, I tried to stop on the canvas this exponential movement, to fx this speed in painting.
As a result of artworks on canvas in which a paradox-flled chaos emerges, exploding speed and movement, in the image of a globalized society cut off from the slow rhythm of nature, a city plagued by illusions of a futuristic techno world. At a time when the whole of Humanity is aware that it is one with the whole of the biosphere and the living, the exhibition “Hors-Sol” is an allegory of this acceleration and question our positions and paths: but where are we going so fast? ”
