This collage is an ironic illustration of my work. It takes into account only one aspect, cutting out pictures, dismember them. It is indeed quite sadistic, at least in appearance. This is the first step of an assemblage. But in fact, it is precisely the assembly that makes the image, not its destruction. The viewer first sees the motley aspect, an effect that is visible in any badly or randomly arranged collage. It would of course be nice to hide the junctures in order to obtain a unified picture, a traditional image. So there are two extremes: the disjointed picture or the unified image. What to do to escape this dilemma? Personally, I work on the junction which wants to be it in a literal sense, which unifies while showing the radical otherness of each piece put together. Why this research? I think in my first collages I was looking for a feeling, a laugh at a joke, to make my own movies. Now I am confronted with the legacy of the art, especially in painting. Probably because this legacy seems museumified and that it doesn’t inspire any more. The other day in my garden, I said to myself that my wife knew from where she came from, what piece of land, she kept its smell engraved in her. Not me, probably because my hometown was partially erased during the war and we had to go to the countryside, to stay at a peasant’s home with our nanny, my parents with their friends in their property. My only place to me is my name, my origins, not even my mother tongue. I am, that's all, I am not FROM… Thus in art, my origin, that is my work. That's why I work so hard and with such fury. When I imagine that I had to put it in the background during my so-called active life! Now I am at work for almost 11 wonderful years and I was able to regain a foothold in my original garden: my desk.



 

Ce collage est une illustration ironique de mon travail. Il ne prend en compte qu'un aspect, le fait de découper des images, de les démembrer. C'est en effet assez sadique, du moins en apparence. Il s'agit de la 1e étape d'un montage. Mais en fait, c'est justement l'assemblage qui fait l'image, pas sa destruction. Le spectateur ne voit d'abord que l'aspect hétéroclite, un effet que suscite tout collage mal agencé. Il serait bien entendu tentant de masquer les jointures pour obtenir une image unifiée, un tableau traditionnel. Il y a donc deux extrêmes : l'image désarticulée ou l'image unifiée. Que faire pour échapper à ce dilemme? Personnellement, je travaille sur la jonction qui se veut telle au sens littéral du mot, elle unifie tout en montrant l’altérité radicale de chacun des morceaux joints. Pourquoi cette recherche? Je crois que dans mes premiers collages je recherchais une sensation, un rire devant un gag, bref à me faire mon propre cinéma. Maintenant, je me confronte à l’héritage de l’art, notamment à la peinture. Sans doute parce que cet héritage me semble muséifié et qu’il n’inspire plus. L’autre jour, dans mon jardin, je me disais que ma femme savait d’ où elle venait, de quel bout de terre, qu’elle en gardait l’odeur gravée en elle. Moi pas, sans doute parce que ma ville natale a été en partie rasée pendant la guerre et qu'on a dû aller à la campagne, nous loger chez un paysan avec notre nounou, les parents chez leurs amis dans leur propriété. Mon seul lieu à moi, c’est mon prénom, mes origines, même pas ma langue maternelle. Je suis, c’est tout, pas je suis DE... Ainsi, en art, mon origine, c’est l’œuvre. Voilà pourquoi j'y tiens tant et avec un tel acharnement. Dire que j'ai dû mettre cela au second plan durant ma vie soi-disant active. Maintenant je suis à pied d'œuvre depuis bientôt 11 belles années ou j'ai pu reprendre pied dans mon jardin des origines : ma table de travail.
