EXPO SOLO - Survivances

Du 9 au 25 mars 2023 - Galerie La Mare​, Lyon ​.

“ Forgés pour donner prise sur ce qui nous dépasse, des rituels et des croyances populaires parviennent jusqu’à nous. On appelle ces formes des “survivances” (du latin “Superstitio”) car elles perdurent malgré le discrédit du mode de pensée qui les a fait naître.

 Elles ont résisté aux efforts d’effacement, souvent au prix de métamorphoses.

Elles trouvent leur origine dans des rites biens plus anciens que l’année zéro occidentale, ancrés dans une pensée de l’humain en intime interdépendance avec les autres animaux et végétaux, où la matière peut être porteuse de volonté. On en voit les traces dans les processions carnavalesques, fêtes subversives où l’on joue à s’hybrider, où l’on brouille nos identités et quelques devantures de banques, avant de brûler une idole du pouvoir comme un sort jeté…

Entre artisanat, magie et anthropologie, l’artiste manipule le langage rituel et symbolique comme intercesseur dans le monde palpable “

VERNISSAGE le jeudi 09 à 18h30.

FINISSAGE avec Conférence de la philosophe Marion Frenay, sur les traces du sacré dans l’art contemporain et la notion d’ouverture à l’altérité dans le processus créatif. Samedi 25 mars.

Merci à Manuel Salazar et Sarah Mulet pour les photos du vernissage.

For a belated #NationalFoxDay: 🦊

Fox Runner Effigy Vessel

Moche, North Coast region, Peru, c.400-700

Ceramic, pigment

Brooklyn Museum display

“The anthropomorphic fox on this effigy vessel wears a large disc headdress associated with the Ritual Runners, figures shown racing through the desert landscape in many examples of Moche art. Similar discs in gold and copper have been found in elite burials, suggesting that the Ritual Runners were a high-ranking group of adult males, possibly priests, who participated in special ceremonies throughout the Moche territory. Scholars believe that Moche priests consumed the hallucinogenic San Pedro cactus (Echinopsis pachanoi) to transform themselves into animal spirit helpers such as the fox.”

Dheut-e-Zonja, or Zôja-e-Dheut ("Lady of the Earth"), was the Illyrian/Albanian Earthmother of the ancient Balkans, also called Dheun, Dheu, and Toka ("Earth"), and Mëmë-dheu ("Mother Earth"). The Romans identified her with Tellus Mater, Terra Mater, or Magna Mater (Cybele). The very soil of Dheut-e-Zonja was believed to have the powers of an all-seeing eye that watched humanity from the ground up, knowing everywhere each of us goes. When an Albanian moved to a foreign land, he or she took with them a container of Mother Earth, as the concept of the Earthmother was regionalized. She was Mother of the Sun-goddess, rebirthing Her every morning. She cared for the dead, their remains buried and their soul going to an underworld paradise. Mourners would get on their knees making forlorn wailing sounds, then place their foreheads on Mother Earth. She was sometimes paired with Zoh-z, the Albanian Sky-god, with many formulaic sayings or prayers to Earth and Sky. Presumedly he was her husband. Dheut-e-Zonja was mother of vegetation. Her sacred groves were designated natural sites of great beauty, where it was forbidden to cut down trees, and no house or settlement was permitted, or the offenders' families would suffer longlasting misfortune.

An Albanian and Kosovan folk practice that lasted into the 20th Century provides lingering evidence of an Earthmother cult. Infants and children who were not thriving would be taken to a ritual location by an elderly woman of the family or village, there laid upon the ground, and covered with fresh earth, all except the head, the while reciting prayers or spells of healing. This was believed to impart the Earth's strength to the child.

Stephanie H Shih

Stephanie H Shih, New World Mall, 2021. Ceramic Sculptures.

When I first started my ceramics practice, my work circled around significant foods from my past. Stephanie Shih’s work has been a huge influence in the creation of that body of work.

The recreation of easily recognisable branded grocery items in ceramics opened up a whole world of possibilities for me, as at that point in time I hadn’t known much about the potential of both ceramics as a medium and fine art.

New World Mall to me, signifies mirrored experiences in the everyday lives of certain demographics, namely the Asian diaspora in the U.S.A. Despite that, even I have a visceral reaction towards the branded items that Shih recreates. At it’s core, this body of work is humorous, joyful, and empathetic. A medium for attachment, object representations of memories and feelings.

Her work has led me to explore a recreation of objects from my life in my practice. It’s easy to see this as just another form of glorified consumerism, but I think it’s also a commentary on social status, cultural monopolies, and shared idiosyncrasies across lives.
