(FRANÇAIS CI-DESSOUS)

The Unnatural Causes series enchants us by degrees. At first glance, I don’t think we discern individual nudes. Instead, we see a shimmering design of two-dimensional shapes created by the figures, negative shapes and the sides of the boxes. The viewer simply enjoys the thrill of the visual stimuli: the vibrating patterns formed in the mind as multiple images of multiple models hide and reveal themselves, in an experience akin to op art. Figures rotate; the boxes widen and narrow; negative shapes appear to recede then loom forward; shadows play on the nudes, like clouds undulating over a landscape.

(FRANÇAIS)

La série Unnatural Causes nous enchante par degrés. Au premier regard, je ne pense pas qu'on y discerne des nus individuels. À la place, on y distingue un design graphique créé par l'imbrication de figures, de formes géométriques et creuses dont on distingue les côtés latéraux. Le regardeur apprécie alors le plaisir simple d'avoir sa vision stimulée de façon inhabituelle; le motif prends vie dans son esprit lorsque les multiples images des figures féminines se révèlent tandis que d'autres se cachent. Proche du "Op Art" (art optique), les figures sont en rotation, les boîtes s'élargissent et se referment, les ombres se déplacent sur les corps nus tels des nuages ondulant sur un paysage.
