LÀ OÙ COMMENCE LE CIEL

video, loop, wood, 2024

 

"Pauline Julier works with resonances and echoes. She often blends micro and macrocosm. Là où commence le ciel (2024) consists of a wooden dome and a video showing an eye during cataract (formerly called “grey star”) surgery. The analogy between eyeball and globe, between the circularity of the wooden structure and the endless loop of the text, becomes apparent as soon as one reflects upon the title of the work. The artist’s poetry brings us closer to the place “where the sky begins”, somewhere between our cornea and the line of the horizon."
