Carbon is common to all known forms of life. It is the fourth most abundant element in the universe and the second most abundant in the human body. The landscapes that Valentin Bajolle creates using charcoal (a tool largely made up of carbon) tell the story of this living matter, in motion, in front of which the viewer is a passing witness. <\/p>\n
Whatever the scale chosen to measure, nothing that belongs to the physical world is fixed in time or space. Like charcoal, itself the product of a series of transformations, the works capture the fragment of an ongoing metamorphosis. This metamorphosis takes place over an indefinite interval. Are we witnessing the genesis of something? Is there really a beginning and an end? At what point in the cycle are we? <\/p>\n
These forms evolve in a space that extends beyond the paper. They show themselves, protrusions whose origin remains invisible to our eyes, epiphenomena of a parallel nature that it is up to us to explore.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
