Fragment n°09

Bricks are made of earth but they are industrially produced and nowadays they symbolize a society which has been driven continuously by money and productivity. Highlighting their subtile colors, their extensive textures and their graphical qualities, Aurélien Veyrat resets our vision : while looking at his columns or sculptures of repeated elements, we feel a confrontation between past and future, between low- and high-technology, between industry and craft. As an archeologist, Aurélien Veyrat keeps, classifies, archives all the precious wastes he creates by sculpting bricks. This parts inspires him new shapes and new associations. As far as his wastes go smaller, he has a new challenge. Questioning the relation between decor and construction, with common elements we never care about, he develops his own imaginary spaces and let the visitors interpret scales and combinaisons in their own ways. We can be moved by the beauty of these ruins while our world seems so troubled.
