ET CETTE FRACTURE LÀ, ELLE VA FORMER UN HEXAGONE

2018 – Installation | Screen printing on fabric | 280 x 200 cm
Julia Borderie & Eloïse Le Gallo

This installation confronts different layers of the rocky landscape from micro to macro based on a meeting with the hydrogeologist Laurent Bret in Reunion Island in 2016. The sensation of water infiltrating, transforming and displacing mass is a common thread of the work.
Reproducing the images using silkscreen forms links between the images collected during the different conversations to recompose a path through the rocks, like scanning multiple layers of terrain.
The motifs come from different sources: microscopic views of basaltic rocks, photos of basaltic structures, video captures of gushing water. In the exhibition space, the display suggests structures present in nature (crystals, hexagons of basalt organs).
