An opus even more choreographic than the previous works, Qui som? , under the influence of the Spanish group Mal Pelo, could be considered the heir to Maguy Marin’s May B or Paso Doble by the duo Josef Nadj and Miquel Barceló.
Philippe Noisette
The first part of a triptych in which ceramic is both the material and the gesture of an investigation into our worlds in the making, a journey through our ways of believing and doing together, Qui som? is a wager: that dreaming is an exploratory and transformative power, an imaginary force that overflows each of us to link us to other presences, a way of orienting ourselves in obscure journeys, in secret lands. It’s a struggle. It’s alive. In colour. In clay. In plastic. In scraps and eternity.
“Our inner worlds, our intimate territories, are the breeding ground for the social landscapes to come. So if what’s to come is already here, inside our bodies, if it’s already being made inside us, we’re trying to highlight what keeps the joy, the desire, what resists, sings and dances inside us forever, to give ourselves the courage to see ourselves and not forget the worst.”
