” Aria mea de
interes implica cercetarea reciclarii permanente a simbolurilor, modul in care
concepte abstracte sunt transpuse visual, precum  si mecanismele care contribuie la
transformarea acestora. 

Ca
punct de plecare al acestui proiect este reprezentarea simbolica a Statului
Francez, Marianne.  Incepand cu 1969
Marianne isi schimba infatisarea odata la cativa ani. Primarii oraselor
franceze sunt invitati sa voteze personalitati care pot intruchipa esenta
Statului Francez, actrite, top modele faimoase sau cantarete printre ele
figurind Catherine Deneauve, Mireille Mathieux, Brigitte Bardot,  Laeticia
Casta,  cea de momentul actual fiind  Evelyne Thomas (gazda unui talk show
popular  in Franta).  

Avand
aceasta premisa urmaresc sa preiau regulile acestui joc si invit vizitatorii
sa  participe activ
in construirea  proiectului, sa
identifice trasaturile celor care din punctul lor de vedere reprezinta conceptul
de NORMALITATE. 

Incepand
cu data de 5 Septembrie si pana pe
data de 20 Septembrie vizitatorii
pot vota si in  functie de voturile
vizitatorilor, « castigatorii »
vor fi imortalizati intr-o sculptura. ”

“I am
interested in the ability to create sets of rules and I work with stubbornly
persistent assertions that artistic objects are materializations of layers of
negotiations leading to a final outcome.

The
starting point of this project is the symbolic representation of the French State,
Marianne. Starting with the year 1969, Marianne is changing her appearance
every few years. The mayors of some towns in France
are being invited to choose the next personality to embody the French State.
These personalities include actresses, famous models, singers such as Catherine
Deneuve, Mireille Mathieux, Brigitte Bardot,
Laeticia Casta. The actual Marianne is 
Évelyne Thomas (the hostess of a popular talk show in France).

Assuming
this fact, I am interested in embodying those rules while inviting the visitors
of this webpage to be actively engaged in the building of the project, to
‘identify‘ the features of the people who represent the concept of NORMALITY.

Starting
with 5 September until 20 September, you can vote online and
as a prize «the winner» will be
immortalized in a sculpture.”
