Vers le feu (Into the fire), 2025
Black chalk on Japanese paper
15 3/8 x 11 5/8 in
Framed
A fire, the very one that “was no doubt for man the first subject of reverie, the symbol of rest, the invitation to rest” (1). It is this same fire, soothing and tranquil, that the artist renders in black chalk. Are we not all hypnotized by the dance of the flames? Is this not the very respite we seek? A tangible experience of something elusive, for “through its sacrifice in the heart of the flame, the ephemeral gives us a lesson in eternity.”
(1) Gaston Bachelard, La psychanalyse du feu, Paris, Gallimard, “Folio essais” series, p. 36.
