NEVERCREW wall for Winterhur14 2014-09-16

NEVERCREW wall for Winterhur14

“Interpretive Machine n°1”
ca. 10 x 6 meters
Winterthur (CH), september 2014

The inspiration for this painting comes at first from the context: a place, a group of
buildings that once was like a “little city”, with each part working together for the
same product. As a symbol of this past, a few mechanical elements remain on the
wall, probably still working but not used.
The metal plate and the mechanical arm become the basis for a new mechanism:
something that recalls a pantograph, that it’s usually made to change proportions of
things and that now can work on both directions.
This is the starting point from which is expressed a reflection about union and
discomposition, from where the painting comes from.
