LUKE JAMES - 2021

Pie-Fer & Pie-Laiton (Birds) LES PIES

CO WORKING SPACE

Born in 1990, in Dijon France. Lives and works currently in  Paris, France.

Sculptures, historical, political and social actions. His sculptures can be broken down as a series of sensitive, weighted gestures practised on performative materials, or Luke James's installations are always the result of an experience linked to a story (big or small), an anecdote from which he has selected extracts and materialswhile exploring their x dimension worked in a raw manner.

His work develops through pieces that function as indexical and fragmentary traces of the dissection of relationships between power relations and curiosity: Man, animals, architecture and social classes are some of the components of the interactions that the artist observes and questions on a daily basis. These reflectionsare nourished by an assiduous reading of American and European literature and philosophy, which depictpioneering attitudes and thoughts, offering a counterpoint to the prescriptions of modern Western society.

For him, the exhibition space becomes a territory to be conquered or inhabited, and he makes it his ownthrough gestures of construction and deconstruction.
