Rivage

Rivage /// 4x8m.

À l’occasion de l’exposition Présage (Jérôme Maillet) à la galerie Upstairs, nous avons eu envie de prolonger l’échange hors les murs.

Les Halles en commun sont rapidement devenues le terrain de jeu idéal. L’endroit est une ancienne friche industrielle qui nourrit autant mon travail que celui de Jérôme Maillet. Ce paysage mouvant en perpétuelle transformation mêle architecture, minéral et végétal dans des assemblages imprévisibles. Le mural réalisé à quatre mains joue avec les codes de ce lieu en laissant émerger un décor recomposé, instable et spontané.

To mark the ‘Présage’ exhibition (Jérôme Maillet) at the Upstairs Gallery, we wanted to extend the dialogue beyond the gallery walls.

Les Halles en commun quickly became the ideal playground. The site is a former industrial wasteland that inspires both my work and that of Jérôme Maillet. This ever-changing landscape, in a state of perpetual transformation, blends architecture, minerals and vegetation in unpredictable combinations. The mural, created collaboratively, plays with the codes of this place, allowing a recomposed, unstable and spontaneous setting to emerge.

Impregnated by the practice of graffiti, which he began in 1990 in Rennes, Brez develops a painting that seems to use codes from cubism, constructivism or futurism. However, his graphic language is more certainly the heritage of the research of a letter style, a quest intimately related to the world of graffiti writing. Between abstraction and figuration, his In Situ paintings are inspired by the panorama while playing with the surface of the chosen places. The workshop work feeds on the forms inherited from graffiti and adapts to the limited frame of the canvas. He feeds again the painting in the public space in a permanent coming and going.
