Carmen Perrin: Irréversibles

Irréversibles are the universe expanding or the shifts of life that develop and envelop us, both inside us and outside us. Like the extremely precise and random lines that criss-cross the palms of our hands or the trajectories given rise to by the collision of particles crashing into one another at high speed, for each particular thing, animal, mineral or vegetable, the time taken shapes and improvises a specific cartography. A superimposition of rays consisting of straight and curved lines, born of a multitude of moving points that have become targets in motion.

In this exhibition, the spring is a mechanical element whose linear presence in tension is repeated along a medium to form a membrane that takes on its shape. The word displayed in the material by the spreading of the spirals refers to the irremediable action that distorts, transforms and lets through light.
