Starting from infinity and experiencing reality
Nanoparticles of life. My work shelters an unknown, subterranean world. In a temporality all its own, in suspended time, nature cultivates its mysteries here. Living matter that has become imperishable and unfading, the Monotypes are plant leaves that grow in my studio according to a meticulous and random manufacturing process.
The material still lives on a microscopic scale. Each piece is unique and the result of a mysterious alchemy. Here, nature evolves at its own pace according to the seasons and humidity levels, shaping the leaf into a thousand designs.
Depending on the environment in which they are installed, microorganisms develop and thus form matter, color, relief, and vibration. An epiphenomenon of matter, the body, the microcosm and macrocosm, space and time, the invisible is embodied in a leaf, in living matter. The invisible becomes visible beneath its layers. In some cases, lines, curves, and multiple planets.
