Gris et Bleu

With the artist Nicolas Muller

The street is grey and blue. The street (feat. Akhenaton), Pit Baccardi, 1999

Initially a memory image, later abandoned, forgotten in its materiality and engraved with light in the walls of the mind. Liminal and founding image of a concrete wall on a blue sky background, a blue sky crossed with grey. A movement-image of a gaze that slips, sliding towards the mineral edge, carried away by the breeze in the white-bearded skies.

Minimal as well, this bichromatic landscape image cut into thirds. Yet it resists and offers its complexity to patience, new tensions and cracked evidences. Over time, the surface of modernity is altered by streaks or scratches, trapping us in the conflict of the impossible, between the ardent desire for perfection, this vanity, and the acceptance of impermanence, the necessity of alteration.

And the blue, this changing grey-blue, erased by clouds, sometimes striated with flashes, dense and saturated with icy drops that scar the horizon until the empire becomes blind. The victory of resistances.

Nicolas Muller places his battle in the blind spot of a controlled world and practices a discreet struggle drawing that, through repetition, methodical gestures, brings about new possibilities and alternatives. Like Winston, the character in George Orwell's 1984, he cultivates a lack of rigor, elevating the accumulation of errors into principles to bring about sensitivity from order; a double writing to celebrate intuition and vital space, which is born in the interstices.

Gris et Bleu is a poetic synthesis of the city, the urban space as a page of erasure, the face of absence, a space of freedom. With a stripped-down aesthetic, the artist offers works sometimes mural and protocol, evolving and spatialized, or large formats that through precarious discipline and the exhaustion of a gesture celebrate the advent of form and a breath of humanity.
