The morphogenesis suitcase
2011
Wooden suitcase, gray silicone, white polyester plaster, plinth in raw oak
25,6 x 15,7 x 20;5 inches (65 x 40 x 52 cm)
Produced upstream of a three-month residency in the Marquesas Islands (Hiva Oa), the morphogenesis suitcase is an invitation to travel. A geological journey in the stratified landscapes that are restored by its casts of various shells sources. An original quest where the gray silicone mold in negative and its white product in positive face each other, to leave, once the suitcase closed, only full. The piece thus questions the narrowness of the relationship between the work and its support-packaging and its manufacturing tools. |
