Artist writing #14

subtitle

The Colour Happens, It Is Not Provoked

Work description and interpretation
This piece was published in the book published by Corraini and was written to explain my process to Jean-Luc Nancy and to construct a project that would make his words and my images coexist.
It was written and sent to Jean-Luc in 2015 and published in 2016.
I decided to attribute the status of work to some of my writings, including them in the archive as such only in 2024. This text was written without the knowledge that it would have assumed the status of work in the future.
Series description and interpretation
Artist's writings
The elements that make up the usual act of an artist’s writing are used here as an integral part of the system-process-work, so much so that I decided to catalogue them in the archive not just as documents but also as works.
They were written either because other artists asked for them, or they accompanied projects, or were read during conferences, or are published works and new writings. They are writings that almost never have an assertive-declarative structure, but which could rather be described as an epistolary-text, a confessional-text, an explicative-text of a feeling, an empathetic-text, a dedication-text, a description-text, a diary-text, an examination-text, a dialogue-text, etc.
I decided to give the status of work to a series of my writings in 2024 and since then I have selected others to add to the sequence.
