Regarding the Pain of the Other

File Festival
Two large, transparent plastic sheets and a device that gradually sucks the air out from between them leave the body (in this case the artist himself) vacuum-packed and vertically suspended. The transparent tube inserted between the two surfaces allows the person inside the installation to regulate the air flow. As a result of the increasing pressure between the plastic sheets, the surface of the packed body gradually freezes into multiple micro-folds. For the duration of the performance, the person inside moves slowly and changes positions, which vary from an almost embryonic position to one resembling a crucified body.

panoramic awareness pavilion
Panoramic awareness pavilion (2013), was created for the John and Mary Pappajohn Sculpture Park in Des Moines, Iowa. It is at once a large-scale light sculpture, which demands distance for proper appreciation, and a pavilion, which invites its audience to enter, explore, and engage with the work from within the structure.

Yuca easy chair
It looks like a spatial sculpture, at once experimental and inviting, rotatable and completely covered. The YUCA easy chair is reminiscent of a softly rounded cup of petals, appearing to grow out of thin air. It stands on a metal X-shaped base which is chrome-plated or lacquered. The result is a perfect shape brimming with flexibility and seating comfort.

Le Mannequin
Alain Séchas est intéressé par des questions de forme, d’équilibre et de couleur. Il pousse le public à la confrontation, à s’interroger, tout en nous proposant une réflexion humoristique sur la vie quotidienne. On pourrait le qualifier d’artiste plasticien puisqu’il utilise de nombreux outils et fait diverses installations intégrant plusieurs disciplines.
Oneness
Oneness features two bodies of work, both related to the Wave UFO project. Oneness is a sculpture of six “alien” figures, linking hands in a circle. The aliens connote otherness, but are irresistibly attractive, encouraging the viewer to kneel down and hug them. When the viewer participates in the work by hugging the figures and welcoming them, the aliens’ eyes light up and their hearts start beating. When all six are hugged at once the base lights up as well. The figures are made with Technogel, a high tech flexible material molded onto a metal armature.

“We can’t predict, nor very precisely describe, what a psychedelic experience brings, and this is probably the most confounding aspect of it all,” Jeremy Shaw
N-01
The artist creates an unprecedented visuospatial system that transforms the historical museum and its viewers alike.Visitors are kindly invited to touch and move the black metal and glass elements of the artwork.The built environment is inhabited through an array of inputs and outputs. Our bodies set in motion invisible chains of cause and effect. Enter a room: lights turn on. Turn a handle:a door opens. This relay is modulated through system controllers, devices programmed to respond to moving bodies and aural commands. Buried within walls, floors and ceilings, building networks are a black box.

Philippe Druillet ist ein französischer Comiczeichner und -schöpfer sowie ein Innovator im Bereich visuelles Design. Druillet wurde in Toulouse, Haute-Garonne, Frankreich, geboren, verbrachte seine Jugend jedoch in Spanien und kehrte 1952 nach dem Tod seines Vaters nach Frankreich zurück. Als Science-Fiction- und Comic-Fan arbeitete Philippe nach dem Abitur als Fotograf und zeichnete nur zu seinem eigenen Vergnügen. Sein erstes Buch erschien 1966 mit dem Titel Le Mystère des abîmes (Das Geheimnis des Abgrunds). Es stellte seinen wiederkehrenden Helden Lone Sloane vor und spielte mit Science-Fiction-Themen, die teilweise von seinen Lieblingsautoren H. P. Lovecraft und A. E. van Vogt inspiriert waren. Später schuf Druillet Buchcover für Neuveröffentlichungen von Lovecrafts Werken sowie zahlreiche Filmplakate. Nachdem Druillet 1970 regelmäßig Beiträge für das französisch-belgische Comic-Magazin Pilote verfasste, wurde seine Lone Sloane-Saga immer extravaganter, da er Innovationen wie kühne Seitendesigns und computergenerierte Bilder verfolgte.
