Le Serpent d'eau

2025
Cotton, polyester, pvc - 160 cm x 35 cm

"Le Serpent d'eau" and "Le Jaguar" are made from everyday materials and, by evoking two creatures from Native American mythology, draw attention to what lives around us: the non-human, often relegated to the margins in Western culture2. They are masks to be worn, accompanied by a sequence of precise gestures. They are part of a series inaugurated by the artist in 2020 with Être ciel, a cloak that transposes the space above us onto fabric and, once worn, allows us to identify with the sky. The masks allow the wearer to become a moving representation and embodiment of the qualities attributed to the creatures whose likeness they assume."
