Mu

sculpture to activate, metal, 220 x 17,5 x 2,5 cm, 2020

Metal stilts, designed in a minimalist aesthetic, are scattered throughout the exhibition rooms: balanced against each other, on the floor, leaning against the walls... The installation seems to draw random lines within the space, its visual lightness contrasting with the tension it creates.
Like an evolving installation, viewers are invited to arrange the stilts as they wish, but also to use them to move around the exhibition space. The elevation provided by ? and the impression of domination it conveys is quickly countered by a precarious balance, putting the body to the test.
The title, a simple Greek letter pronounced “mu,” evokes movement (to move, in french) while symbolizing, through its appearance, the activated work.
