With these series of sculptures, Julien Discrit develops research where the materials and forms are intimately intertwined. He pursues two reflections very important in his work: one on the minerals, crystals and stones, and another on the spatial, geological and temporal relationship between humankind and its environment. Like future fossils, these sculptures of human hands holding rocks represent an almost archaic gesture of gripping. In a snapshot, they propose a "becoming stone" that plays with both materials - organic and mineral mixed together in yet another piece made of reconstituted stone - but also with artistic and historical practices in the sense of inventing a contemporary aesthetic from an artificial archaeological ruin. It thus reveals the aesthetic forms already given in our environment like these stones which are in themselves finished sculptural forms.

This piece is composed by a brass shaft directly inserted into a wall and a halogen spot light. This produces a shadow on the wall, the word NOW is written underneath.

Each Diagram offers the story of a selected dream made by the artist, realised on a notebook page. By removing the ribbon from a typewriter, the paper has been carved to create the letters and the words which make these scripts visible for our eyes.

Diagramme n°020208-030208 - "Histoire de l'univers"

Noir. Un flash aveuglant. C?est le big bang.
Les images défilent comme devant un film documentaire. L?histoire de l?Univers défile sous mes yeux en accéléré; la formation des premières étoiles, des galaxies, des planètes, du système solaire. Le temps s?écoule à toute vitesse.

La Terre est maintenant visible, les continents se déplacent. Nous approchons.?Comme vu d?un satellite on apercoit l?Europe, puis la Suisse, puis le Lac Léman. Le zoom se poursuit, de plus en plus rapide.

Nous voici dans la salle des commandes du CERN, à Genève, en 2009. Tous les scientifiques et les physiciens sont réunis pour procéder au lancement du grand accélérateur de particules. Le décompte est lancé, 10...9...8...

Tous les regards se portent vers les écrans de contrôle, la tension est palpable.

6...5...4...

L?opérateur s?apprête à appuyer sur le bouton, ...1...0.

Il appuie.

Noir. Un flash aveuglant. C?est le big bang.

Evans is a tape delay unit placed within a display case. The viewer cannot hear the recorded sounds coming from the tape, an endlessly repeated loop of the surrounding noises. A piece of adhesive tape on the erasing head prevents the sound from disappearing and continues to build on itself like an infinite memory process.
