Faire ailleurs

Through her series Les puits du ciel, Chourouk Hriech continues her exploration of drawing through the use of vases, whose shapes refer to ancient times. Within these everyday objects, she draws birds, which she considers as allegories of spirituality, as manifestations of an endless and inaccessible 'elsewhere'. By opening the vase, the artist overturns realities and invites us to discover an imaginary ecosystem. She twists the initial function of the objects to explore new possibilities. The artist creates a paradox, reflected by the oxymoron in the title: the vases shelter another sky and the hollow space becomes infinite.

Dans cette série de dessins à l'encre de Chine, Chourouk Hriech représente différentes perspectives d'un même assemblage d'objets. Ce sont des cruches, des livres ou des draps qui ont servi à la réalisation d'une de ses oeuvres vidéos. Ces dessins sont en noir et blanc, géométriques et contrastés mais des détails comme les motifs des cruches ou les drapés se dégagent. Le titre évocateur de la série confirme la volonté de l'artiste de capturer avec ces natures mortes un moment qui lui est particulier.
