“The original form of a dwelling is existence not in the house but in the shell. The shell bears the impression of its occupant. In the most extreme instance, the dwelling becomes a shell. The nineteenth century, like no other century, was addicted to dwelling. It conceived the residence as a receptacle for the person, and it encased him with all his appurtenances so deeply in the dwelling’s interior that one might be reminded of the inside of the compass case, where the instrument with all its accessories lies embedded in deep, usually violet folds of velvet.” -- Walter Benjamin, Arcades project

"Bodies Imprinted in the Air" - 2023

Bodies Imprinted in the Air incorporates a plant element. Here, the artist carved a marble cylinder to put the veining in relief. He then recorded the network of marks in an imprint made on the flat surface of a slab of the same marble. Finally, he dug furrows on the sheet that precisely corresponded to the traces in relief on the cylinder. Placed on the slab, it evokes a cylinder seal, used to impress its marks on a surface. A few bronze filaments of ivy - a climbing plant that grows adhering to the form it is resting against - emerge from the cylinder as if they were coiled around it, they seem to unfurl over the plane. The marble cylinder thus also evokes the trunk of a tree, the imprint of which seems to be captured by the ivy.
