" What do you see from where you stand ? "
This sentence, extracted from a song of Tony Touch (Spoken Word, The Peacemaker 2, 2004), lays by my side at each moment. It helps me, backs me, strengthens me and questions me always and again. First, because it's a matter of vision, and also a matter of position and, finally, of point of view. I neither can nor want to give a definition of the world in which I live, for to define involves the end, the stop and the non-movement. However I want to try to circumscribe it, to surround it and to get close to it sideways through the shapes I create. This is a position and these shapes I make are the affirmation of these positions. These shapes are markers set on a trajectory, a movement of excitement and precipitation.
I work in this idea of art that consists in binding and unbinding, weaving, interweaving or undoing cleverly, crumbling, shredding, pulverizing the surface or space in an infinity of fragments that finishes to mass.
I gather those fragments in a kind of obstinacy, a headless obstinacy coming from entrails. I invent communities of shapes and I want that they be communities of equals and join together in one point, which is the sculpture. They must let appear nor a reductionist thought, but a thought bare in its abundance, embracing a unattainable totality.
How to give shape to this swarm of the thought, this effect of anthill, of crawling and of multitude, this hecticness ? The thought would be that which comes to disrupt the shape and jostles an overperfect order. Not that this one could be consider as a pure disorder, but rather as an overcomplex order, a muddle and a superposition of different readable orders if taken separately, but which reading becomes nearly impossible when all the elements are united in a single shape.
What is in play, it's finally the complexity of the thought taking shape. And at that very moment, I invoke the radicalness of acting out to exhort this meeting of art and life, of Ares and Aphrodite; the violent assertion of gesture that precipitates and crystallizes the thought and decision into the shape.
My work is the battleground of this war between the imperialism of the shape, the all-power of the thought inescapably structuring and structured, and the temptation of the unreadable, of the unspeakable and of the unnamable. Y.G
