DES JEUX DONT J’IGNORE LES RÈGLES (DISPLAY) (GAMES WHOSE RULES I IGNORE (DISPLAY))
2015
Air de jeu, Un nouveau Festival, Centre Pompidou
Curators : Michel Gauthier & Cyril Jarton
Display, a continuation of the series Games Whose Rules I Ignore, is also constituted by a sculpture and a movie. The sculpture is not in itself a game board, but an object between an architectural model, a scenography and a pedestal. On this structure are settled some pawns which can be found in the other games of the series as well as models of these same games. The various scales, real for the game pieces, reduced for the models strengthen the indefinite nature of this display. The movie is a kind of documentary, a fixed close shot on the display, where hands manipulate the pieces and models, place them, change their location, whereas a little audible voice mumbles in a solitary reflection.
