Sandra Aubry et Sébastien Bourg travaillent en duo depuis 2006. Leurs recherches se portent sur les espaces transitionnels : espaces, signes et situations limites, paradoxes où les frontières se renversent et basculent nos repères. Ils prennent comme base des formes architecturales et iconiques existantes, qu’ils revisitent et détournent par décalages, contradictions et retournements. Leurs travaux visent l’épuration, cherchant l’équilibre de formes incomplètes, entre-deux, qui scintillent par leur présence et leurs absences. Le sentiment de frustration génère une attitude de projection et d’élaboration.

“Sandra Aubry and Sébastien Bourg invent and build objects as visual riddles. As these objects escape from reality, they are diverted from their functions to become pure signs, questioning contemporary myths. The two artists reveals alternative meanings within objects, analyzing their dreams as their nightmares. The imperfections of material construction (the industrial object almost returned to its primitive state) provide evidence of their fabrication, betraying the imbalance and fragility of shams. This visible fragility coexists with the strength and narrative content produced by each of the objects in tension with the space.”
