“Graceful, spiritual, with the gentleness of arabesques our life is similar to the existence of fairies that spin in soft cadence around nothingness to which we sacrifice the here and now

Dreams of beauty, youthful joy like a breath in pure harmony with the depth of your young surface where sparkles the longing for the night for blood and barbarity

In the emptiness, spinning, without aims or needs dance free our lives always ready for the game yet, secretly, we thirst for reality for the conceiving, for the birth we are thirst for sorrows and death.”

–Hermann Hesse, "In Secret We Thirst" from The Glass Bead Game (1943)

Towards a Transformation of Reality By Michèle Coudert “Artistic work is essentially #individual. Being part of a group such as the #DF Art Project allows me to access a #professional, yet #external outlook, #one which is objective but also benevolent. #United we stand! With my #stylised and #hybrid #figures, I wish to focus on an eye, an exchange of glances, sloping towards the #mouth that invites #dialogue. The #bridge of the #nose, the #shape of the #eyes, #arabesques which delimit the head like horns of #crowns, these make us think of #augmented reality. These faces aim to #foster a link between my imaginary world and that of the spectator. The geometric shapes assemble in fragmented forms to create diagrams and patterns. The mix of materials, sometimes sources of light, recomposes the figure in a mosaic of effects and colours, caught between abstraction and figuration. The face is one of the first points of contact with another. It expresses an emotion, tells a story, true or false. These singular figures are visual fairy tales that each can claim as their own.” Vers une réalité transformée Le travail artistique est par essence individuel. Faire partie d’un groupe tel que DF Art Project permet d’avoir un #regard #extérieur professionnel, objectif et en même temps #bienveillant. L’union fait la #force. Avec mes figures stylisées et hybrides, l’attention converge vers l’œil, dans un échange de regards, et vers la bouche qui invite au dialogue. L’axe médian du nez, le trait des yeux, les arabesques qui terminent les têtes comme des cornes ou des couronnes, renvoient à une réalité transformée. Ces visages cherchent à créer un lien entre mon imaginaire et celui du spectateur. Les formes #géométriques s’assemblent en #volumes fragmentés qui créent des plans et des reliefs. Le mélange des matières, parfois une source #lumineuse, #recompose la figure en une mosaïque d’effets et de couleurs, entre #abstraction et figuration. Le #visage est un des premiers contacts avec l’autre. Il exprime une émotion, #raconte une histoire, vraie ou fausse. Ces figures singulières sont des contes visuels que chacun peut s’approprier. » (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnXwUlvLy-h/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Potions, Arabesques and other Manifestations: Lausanne (CH) bis 21.12.2024

Felix Lindner und Florian Milker haben sich aus ihrer Kinderseele eine Faszination für Materialität beibehalten, für die Möglichkeit, ihre intimen Gefühle auszudrücken, sei es auf formale und/oder sinnliche Weise. Während Felix Lindner sich für Farben, Strukturen und Oberflächen begeistert, ist es der Herstellungsprozess, der seine Neugierde weckt, der es ihm ermöglicht, seine Fragen über unsere…

Work In Progress: Polysemy

Definition: the coexistence of many possible meanings for a word or phrase. Built from some of the same bits of what led to Swim Between Wheels, and Disquiet 43 (Para acordar e lembrar o que éramos), among other things. It has some mixed media on cold press bard and canvas, some scripted filters, and some app generated tiling geometry. It’s not done, but it’s getting somewhere.
