MIGRATIONS part.2 / “Un trait, un sourire”
“Un trait, un sourire” is a project by video artist Julien Piedpremier in the context of a SUC workshop supervised by Nicolas Bault. This project is composed of sound and video installations and drawings.”
“Children with their backs to us wait for the musical note to turn around, observe us and perhaps smile at us. A line appears between us and the face of a child, giving us the shape of a life path. This video installation accompanied by a musical improvisation is sensitive, touching and full of hope. Through the drawing we go in search of our origins. Through these children’s smiles we want to believe that it is not too late and that everything is still possible.” – Julien Piedpremier
Julien Piedpremier
Julien Piedpremier is a graduate of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Clermont-Ferrand and has a doctorate in art and digital images (University of Vincennes – St Denis, Paris VIII). Throughout his university career, he seized opportunities to create alongside composers from IRCAM, notably Alain Bonardi, with whom he created several video art installations, including Alma Sola, presented at the Cube d’Issy les Moulineaux and the Palais de Tokyo. He met Laurence Marthouret (dancer and choreographer) and Patrick Marcland (composer) with whom he participated as a visual artist in Monade. His work is set in new spaces designed to welcome the spectator in the heart of ever more grandiose environments. He was resident at VIDEOFORMES in 2013/2014.
