Irancy - Suite // 70 x 50 cm
D’abord, (dans un autre dessin) une version linéaire des vignes, tout en lignes obliquant au gré d’un vent inventé. Puis (ici) le contraire, (dans le mesure du possible) version courbe de non-vignes, tout en ronds figés ignorant un soleil de plomb.
Irançy // 70 x 50 cm
Dix-neuf jours après une ballade, je dispose d’un souvenir, d’une feuille et d’un feutre. Dans un souci d’économie de moyens, je retranscris l’instant choisi dans les vignes, en lignes et axes massés par des vents discrets, absents de la scène initiale. Et c’est toute l’image qui tend de faibles obliques à mesure que la mémoire flanche.
Malaisie - Royaume du Roi Louie // 70 x 50 cm
Par erreur de cap, Rudyard Kipling dépeignit la jungle indienne, et ainsi ne découvrit jamais le royaume du roi Louie, enfoui en Malaisie. Il aura fallu attendre 1967 (soit 100 ans après la mort de Perçy Fawcett au Brésil) pour en déterrer les vestiges entre 2 herbes folles swingant au son des trompettes.
Babel flottante // 120 x 80 cm
Au 19 et 20ème siècle, l’île flottante désigne toute préparation solide posée sur un lit de crème ou de gelée. Un siècle plus tard, grâce à Christelle Dabos, elle pourra être une arche voguant dans les cieux, et s’appeler Babel. En réponse à cette version poétique de l’oeuf à la neige, et en souvenir de la coque de caramel sculptée qui recouvrait ceux de Papi Loulou, j’ai tissé une enveloppe au dessus des nuages, et un monde par dessous.
Partition // 120 x 80 cm
A force de répétitions, la mémoire du geste guide la main, celle du trait oriente le geste, et la nervure du papier conduit le trait. Parfois, il calque une mélodie et dérive en une partition aléatoire. La souplesse de la ligne étant manifestement inversement proportionnelle à celle de mon poignet, le dessin s’exécute librement jusqu’à la crampe.
Plage - Bouquet final // 120 x 80 cm
Quelques jours avant la Fête national, la Patrouille de France s’entraînait et, de la plage, l’enfant (laissait fondre sa glace) scrutait le ciel. Ebloui, il ferma les yeux. Sous la paupière, les cellules rétiniennes renvoyaient des tâches multicolores, rémanences du soleil, en un bouquet final.
