Mosaic artist, child of the 80s, former advertiser, passionate about images and objects, Kidpier sees himself as an heir to pop artists in the tradition of French ready-mades.<\/p>
His work involves confronting symbols of 21st-century culture with the ancestral art of mosaic, thereby expressing the notion of testimony, a central concept in all his works. This testimony, seen as an inheritance or contemporary archaeology, uses a millennia-old tool of expression and draws inspiration from the intangible everyday, thus capturing a modern iconographic heritage. <\/p>
For him, the mosaic artist destroys and creates, breaks and assembles, in a time-consuming practice that requires an almost ritualistic repetition of ancient gestures. From a harmonious chaos emerges a perfect figuration.<\/p>
The choice of mosaic as a medium is the result of an accident, the traces of which it still bears. This practice, in its modus operandi, accurately testifies to the traumatic experience of having a broken body.<\/p>","country":"FR","circa":false,"date_de_naissance":"","date_de_deces":"","photo":37417},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/galeriemontorgueil.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pa_artistes\/357","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/galeriemontorgueil.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pa_artistes"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/galeriemontorgueil.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/pa_artistes"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/galeriemontorgueil.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?pa_artistes=357"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
