Axes of Focus 202210

202210

During my first phases of work (named on the site Phase 0 and 1), I envisaged the creation of different axes that would allow me to structure my research and best communicate my vision of a multidimensional reality.

Today 5 axes are emerging, overlapping and interpenetrating.
The passage between phase 1 and the current phase of work was made with a choice.The one of establishing the square as a basic module linking the different techniques and ideas. This choice follows a reading of a world in which each existing particle or object, whatever its size or complexity, responds to common development “rules”.

I see these axes of focus as “magnifying glasses” of different magnifications allowing to observe, the material, its luminous, undulatory, sentimental and emotional qualities.
In the study of our consciousness and the outside world through it, perception, sensation and the body take a big place. Beyond the vision, whether physical or spiritual, the sensations of the body bring us a large amount of information on our subjects of study, our intentions and our movements in general.

In the background, there are always the links between microcosm and macrocosm, between the element and the whole from which the principles of unity and universality are born.

The outline of its axes under development:

SENTIMENTAL FABRIC
Study of feelings and emotions, of their influence on matter.

SURFACE FOR REFLEXION
Mirrored objects and surfaces allowing the reflection of the observer.
Questioning about an outside world mirroring ourselves. Diving through consciousness through our own reflections.

MODULAR PAINTING
Painting work on square modules whose installation can offer many variants, many forms for the same object.
The physical painting is accompanied by video “theorems”, animations expressing the mobile aspect of the material, of the painted subject, the idea of a perpetual intrinsic movement.

PHYSICAL & ORGANIC STUDY.
Study of matter at different levels: atomic, molecular, organic.

HEIR-LOOM
Work on fabric. Study of the transmission, of the organic, social and emotional heritage. Study of the impact of inherited information (transgenerational and societal baggage) on the physical body and human behavioral patterns.
I use my family ties to textile work as a support for this research which is both personal and universal.

MICRO-MACRO
Highlighting the links between humans and cosmic space, between the small and the big.

20226267 Sentimental Fabric. Quarks. Light.

Painted wood (indigo and flour based paint ), brass and silver metal wires, polished steel sphere, wooden trunnion.

I imagine the universe structured and supported by weaves, frames of light, invisible to our eyes for the moment. The way scientists study particles in a “vacuum” intrigues me. I transpose it to feelings: the study of feelings in a defined space, the study of the action of feelings on matter. By entering certain places one can sometimes feel a particular atmosphere as if it impregnated in the walls. I observe in the infinite space of thought a projection of the feelings of my body, waves, structures…

Concentrated on my hands at work, on the idea, on the study space, the vision appears vibrant, inside the very gesture, quarks, swirls… the movement caught in the metallic web.

The composition is a journey suspended in the heart of time. The experimentation space is painted with indigo, a natural flour-based paint (traditional Swedish paint). The brush strokes are visible, “spins” hooking the light onto the dark material. On the surface, a partially polished steel sphere confirms gravity. The cosmos is within. A partition where the states are superimposed.

20228239 Cosmic Heart Cell.

Dimension 10x10x10 cm, brass, silver plated metal, copper, cardboard, dyed antic fabric, wood.

In “Cosmic Heart Cell” different realities are superimposed. I perceive and work from the theory of an intelligent multidimensional universe, composed of intricate structures and principles. I reflect on the magnetic field of the human heart by paying attention to the beating of my own. This field extends from 2 to 4 meters, instinctively I bring it closer to the stellar electromagnetic fields detected in the cosmos. I saw in this image, of golden fibers, the projection of a cell, one from the heart of cosmos brought to us by a thought traveling from a infinite and remote space. The metallic wires are such as snapshots of luminous, electric movements.

The box that envelops it, is like a case protecting an offering.

The cubic box is made of dense cardboard covered with ancient fabric dyed with indigo by myself. Much more than a pigment, indigo is for me a symbol of the union of peoples. The cultivation of this tinctorial plant has indeed developed on each continent, tinting the hands of all ethnic groups with blue. The modular aspect of some of my works expresses my search for the multidimensional world. The modularity of the indigo case allows different installations sometimes pedestal, sometimes cocoon.
