Number 54

The interpretation of the medusa myth is very different but what is relevant, for this work, is the relation of Medusa with her image ( Medusa became petrified after a looking at her reflexion in Persée's shield).  Are we prepare to deal with images that we are generating? Are we conscious of what we are representing? I see the pretifaction of Medusa as a symbol of our own ignorance and laxity toward the production and diffusion of images.
After, I guess it is easy to see what we want in Greek mythology.

Number 51

This drawing  illustrates literally the distortion, the accumulation of layers, which bury the reality.

Number 50

What the image reflects, is subjectif and depends of what we are making of it. Every individual showing the same image will have a different interpretation. Because an image is just a representation of the reality, then it is easily distort and misinterpreted.

I wonder what it would be like to have a giant cat as a back up dancer.

Number 47

Another from the earlier "serie". It works as well as the more complex ones,but in a more raw and trashy way. The concept is still unchanged. The advantage was that it was easy to cumulate them because it really took maybe 5 mn to realise one. Without including the clipping and the sticking. So I say maybe 10 mn for all, which is still a bargain.

Number 42

There is a certain dehumanisation in the way people are represented in today's media. The nature of representation is such that there is no physical connection between image and object. Therefore, images can create a sense of distortion or even absence of reality. In the past, there was a consciousness of the power of representation and the meaning images were given. However, by the way we look at images and how we try to represent ourselves today, our relationship with the image is becoming less and less meaningful and, as a result, it emphasises the distortion and absence.

Number 40

Because it's number 40, feels like there a need for celebration. And what's best to celebrate than a space rocket. Woop-woop! See it going! It's going to split that milky way.

Number 39

I think that it is possible to exploit all the difference shemes and still talk about the same shit. Here we have some very simplistic lines, the aesthetic is different, the effects are different, but the concept is the same.
This is not political or caricatural. It is only about representation.

Number 37

Beginning of the "série", when I was thinking to have a very uncluttered style. The simplicity of the lines adds to the raw representation.

Number 33

With the saturation of the information, there is a less value in the property of an image and its essence. The image is treated with no depth, disregarding its impact or its value.


Monday 5 November 2012

Number 30

There was a time where that was a quality in the accessibility. In general, we were receiving informations and images of a hight quality. Now, it takes a lot of effort for a normal person to go and look for those informations. Because with the growth of the accessibility, came the saturation of the information.

Number 29


It is still about representation, transformation, vulgarisation of the representation of an image, illustration of an already transformed image. It is about what we see and what really is. It is about property of an image and latent thief. It  is also about taking easy with the glue.

Number 28

I love those lines. It adds depths and volume.



Number 27

There is something majestic and voluptuous in here, like some sculpture made of some light wood.
