"Exploits et défaites"
04 - 14 avril 2007
The exhibition "Exploits et défaites" of the Berlin-based French artist is to be seen in the Parisian Gallery "Jeune Création" until 14th April 2007. It brings together drawings and embroideries of war scenes and battlefield pictures, extracted from her body of works „Heroism, brutality, despair, friendship and death“ (2005-2006). How to get onto the thematic of war? How to commit onself? How to represent violence nowadays? Answering these questions, the meticulous embroideries and the light drawings clash with the brutal images of fighting soldiers, revealing the cruelty of conflict. The embroidered epics exhibit the slowness of their realisation - each stitch is one second - evoking the time of expectation, speculation and remembrance of the people waiting tirelessly for the return of the fighter.
