CALLIPHORA BY YSEL FOURNET - DayNewsWorld

March 3, 2019 • Opening: Saturday, January 12th from 5pm • Opening: from Wednesday to Saturday from 3 to 7 pm or by appointment except for holidays • Guided tour, Saturday, February 9 at 17h Born in the Pyrenees, in a hippie community, he immediately bathed in sharing, the "deprivation" chosen or rather the true relationship with nature and his ilk. Quickly Ysel FOURNET looks at the limits of existence. Old age, illness, disability, poverty ... become his playgrounds. Going to the simplest, at first, He takes his Grandfather as his model and mischievously combines his questioning about old age and his desire to know his ancestor better. His search for the limits pushes him towards the AP-HP (Public Assistance Hospitals of Paris) where he discovers through his photographs the heat of the bodies and the coldness of the technical acts of the operating theaters. The world of disability is knocking on its door with a Butterfly Order white. His photographs are enriched then with the pain, the joy, the scientific references and the writing which are superimposed. If the destitution he experienced during his childhood remained like a DNA in his way of life, the encounter with poverty during his travels in Africa was, for him, the discovery of another limit of the life and society. Since Ysel wanders between the testimony, the reportage, the portrait and the staging, marrying with subtlety the beautiful and the pregnant. Two years of study at the GOBELINS school will be most useful to tame the light and put into practice the most modern digital techniques. Today, nourished by his previous work, Ysel has taken a new step by combining photographic art with plastic art. Indeed far from reporting, the documentary aspect Ysel enriches his work with overprints and materials in connection with the chosen medium. The paper disappears the metal arrives in its series named "CALLIPHORA". (... / ...) But where does this word "CALLIPHORA" come from? this is the first question that burns our lips. Ysel specifies that it is a fly, this blue fly which has for vocation to break down the organic materials, CALLIPHORA "who bears the beauty". And as a boomerang, the whole universe of this collection reminds us of life, death and moreover the passage. Each photo tells us that we are only vagabonds on this earth. From childhood to old age one would only survive on oneself so that in the end, in an eternal movement, what is dead is irremediably transformed into life. "Calliphora" everything is said. Every moment of our existence is thus swept by the photographer. From the procreation, at the end of life the works jostle us even in their titles. Nidicus, Passage, Homo ergaster, Dementia, Sinus or Chronos, Acid Amine "tells us the long way of life that goes to life. Science is at the heart of this reminiscent production, the carefully hammered message that the human being is, like all organic matter, far beyond the spiritual, eternal by its constitution and thanks to this famous blue fly. Based on interview with Xavier Beaufils 12/2018 The technique Ysel invites us to his workshop. No dark room, no white gloves, no wonder we are almost at a coachbuilder. Indeed, the basic material here is the corrugated sheet. It must be flattened, hit to obtain a usable plate. For larger models the plates are riveted to make them integral. Then "just" remove the rust, brush, put rust, paint white, sublimate everything. Three cooking at 160 ° will be necessary. Finally, we will be able to transfer the photo to a hot press and finally add an anti-UV, anti-shock varnish. Each work is unique by its rendering and the hazards (aberrations) of these many manipulations. Of course all the creative work of the photographer was done upstream. His two years of study at GOBELINS school are most useful for taming the light and putting the most modern digital techniques into practice. Some landmarks Ysel, born in 1977 in a hippie community in the south of France, studies photography at the Gobelins school in Paris. After crisscrossing France in his truck, he is currently working in Louisfert, his adopted land of Brittany. Photographer of reportage then plastic photographer, he also practices painting, sculpture and theater. His universe: surreal, overwhelming, disturbing, perhaps even disturbing, which is sure it does not leave indifferent.
