Reconstituted stone
With these series of sculptures, Julien Discrit develops research where the materials and forms are intimately intertwined. He pursues two reflections very important in his work: one on the minerals, crystals and stones, and another on the spatial, geological and temporal relationship between humankind and its environment. Like future fossils, these sculptures of human hands holding rocks represent an almost archaic gesture of gripping. In a snapshot, they propose a "becoming stone" that plays with both materials - organic and mineral mixed together in yet another piece made of reconstituted stone - but also with artistic and historical practices in the sense of inventing a contemporary aesthetic from an artificial archaeological ruin. It thus reveals the aesthetic forms already given in our environment like these stones which are in themselves finished sculptural forms.

This piece is composed by a brass shaft directly inserted into a wall and a halogen spot light. This produces a shadow on the wall, the word NOW is written underneath.
