The artist develops a world close to our own, an artificial world made up of inclined and vertical planes, which he imagines to be subject to strict geometric rules. In his constructions, which range from models to assemblies of cut-out or simply salvaged pieces of wood, he records and choreographs his gestures, proposing new readings of the objects he produces. The work is no longer defined as a given, specific and immutable object, but as a principle of arrangement.
Excerpt from Cécilia Becanovic & Isabelle Alfonsi’s text accompanying the exhibition “Moon Star Love” at Marcelle Alix in 2009.
