Plux.5 investigate the ENCOUNTER between the image of the courtyard from Montpellier and the allegory of the Quebecois courtyard through its archetypes. MA COURS DANS TA COURS (my courtyard in your courtyard) proposes an unexpected mixture of two symbolic elements of the
Quebecois, fundamentally opposing courtyard, so generating a new subversive image.
The WATER BALLOUNES (water bomb balloon), a courtyard game, becomes muddled in the CLOSE FROST (simple meshing twisting), pragmatic weft opposing to the playful. The alloy surprising with membranes of a brilliant red and with a meshing of strong monochromatic steel bustles in the foreign context of Montpellier courtyard.
MA COURS DANS TA COURS (my courtyard in your courtyard) works such a metaphor of the vast natural territories domesticated by the mineral, regular inner courtyard and contiguous. The exogenous symbol in the place, the original, distances itself by opposition and allows the ENCOUNTER of the courses and the contexts in a new hybrid space.
On macrostructure scale, the constituent’s abstraction reveals a transformation, a crossing of images and perceptible realities for the observer who crosses the hall and roams in the passage. When this one strolls in the courtyard, the microstructure scale shows itself, the abstraction is reversed, the image fades and the assembly confides. The materialism of the installation takes then a sensitive dimension, a stratification of entities in suspension, which unfoldand opens in the imagination.
» […] the more the reports of both moved closer realities are distant and right, the more the image will be strong, more it will have of power emotional person and of poetic reality. «
