Initially, smart circles tangle up gently in each other. Solid and sure of themselves. Stable and united forever. What could be more soothing than these unbreakable, indissoluble bonds that give the feeling that nothing will separate them? Everything seems so well established and so lasting. We are comforted.
However, on closer inspection, this control is more fragile than it seems, and these great circles are hanging on by a thread. United or free? It is too late, and the artist has chosen. Impossible to separate at the risk of breaking everything. The quest for freedom is impossible. We are handcuffed, alienated.
The work of Victoire d’Harcourt often represents a double feeling that links strength and fragility as a whole and whose balance is precarious. It is not so much the links between them that pose a problem; it’s what they are based on.
