Attila cataract your source at the feet of the green peaks will end up in the great sea blue abyss where we drowned in the tidal tears of the moon
curated by Céline Kopp and Cindy Sissokho
Julien Creuzet transforms the French Pavilion and invites visitors into a space irrigated with fluids in which a radical and collective imaginary opens up, populated with divine presences, and connected to Venice by its water. Attila cataract your source at the feet of the green peaks will end up in the great sea blue abyss where we drowned in the tidal tears of the moon promises an immersive and multi-sensory experience, a plunge into Julien Creuzet's forms, materials, and themes.
The title of each of Julien Creuzet's works and exhibitions consists of poetry. This mode of address, a long way from the norms of museum design, press releases, and cartels, is one that the artist has cultivated since his beginnings. Once again, it conveys an invitation to intense experience and to interpretative freedom and diversity. In this poem, with its places, colors, movements, sounds, rhythms, textures, luminosities, obscurities, landscapes, mythologies, disasters and emotions.
"What I want to offer visitors to this pavilion is a complex and sensory zone of confluence, a deeply lived experience. For me, this is what space is about. It is a crossway, a place where anything may be encountered, above all oneself." – Julien Creuzet
