Everything in this project is about fragility, impermanence.
Starting with the subject, the islands, and more particularly the Kerguelen, the triggering island.
Abandoned lands, either because human life was impossible there, or because the geological or climatic conditions did not allow to settle down, or finally because the
sedentary life, or finally because man has made them uninhabitable. Until today...
Then, because this set is a story with drawers, a device putting in relation the real and imaginary scientific iconography, with images
and others from invented landscapes, where photography, drawing and objects meet.
For that, it is a question of a device putting in play a process at the same time of projection and impression. The drawings are stereoscopic images
but not really, a kind of revelation through the line, like threads that weave their weft, that sweep the surface of the sheet, the sky, the water. Then the islands
float, fly, print at the same time their matter and the trace of their passage and make of us the spectators of their crossing.
