Anagrams

Anagrams A curtain is the first and last frontier that delimits the ‘real’ from the ‘imaginary’ on the stage of a traditional theatre. It also delimits two functions, two temporalities and two distinct action spaces. What would be a curtain that does not open to a specific space but merely shows its entrails? A rectangular object of 3x4,5m coated with velvet floats in the middle of the room, discontinuing the perspective view. The colours radiate on the walls and impregnate the eye. The installation proposes a particular type of anagram that uses, instead of words, colours: red is the anagram of violet; one containing and complementing the other, although utterly disparate. at Les Moulins de Paillard | Centre d'Art et Résidence d'Artistes, Poncé sur le Loir, France 2009
