“Fasting makes sense of the hunger. The constant internal grasping. The only sensible answer to this is to always withdraw the thing after which I grasp. To subvert. To thwart. To deny. It closes the loop. If I am hungry and I eat and I remain hungry, hunger becomes rage. But to deny fulfillment makes sense of the hunger – I don’t eat, so I am hungry.” ― Anne de Marcken, It Lasts Forever and Then It’s Over
TRUST TRUTH DEFECT SILENCE
(…) Under the altered and muted light of the gallery space a tension between the industrial quality of the wire and the natural forms they embody hangs in the air.

Bio
Aurélien Potier lives and works in Marseille. His work has been presented at MO.CO. (Montpellier), Palais de Tokyo (Paris), Triangle – Astérides (Marseille), CAPC (Bordeaux), CCA (Glasgow), la Casa Encendida (Madrid), Gianni Manhattan (Vienna), Sissi Club (Marseille), Air de Paris (Romainville), Sultana (Paris), Cooper Union (New York), Belsunce Projects (Marseille), Centre International de Poésie (Marseille), Montez Press Radio (New York). He was an artist in residency at Palais de Tokyo (Paris), Triangle – Astérides (Marseille), Center for Contemporary Arts & GSS (Glasgow), and the CAC Synagogue de Delme.
His work is represented by Gianni Manhattan, Vienna.
Inhabited by a strive to bring together contradictory forces, Aurélien’s work is the fruit of intertwining paradoxes; where fragility gives birth to a language permeated with affects. His work creates perceptive environments that are traversed by disorientation, with a vitality from which emerge written, performed, drawn and sculpted forms. Revendicating the power of vulnerability and affirming the centrality of intimacy, Aurélien powerfully expresses the creative potential of emotional fallibility and instable moments. – Camille Ramanana Rahary
