About the artwork
This work by Sylvain Couzinet-Jacques features three photographs in a frame designed for seven, with the other four spaces left empty. Two of the photos show arches opening onto a landscape blending city and nature, while the third features a woman seated from behind, whose form is a direct echo of the arches. This visual dialogue links architecture, the human body and landscape. The empty spaces accentuate a reflection on absence and narrative potential. The ensemble questions the relationship between full and empty, natural and constructed, absence and presence.
Expert opinion
This work is emblematic of Sylvain Couzinet-Jacques' approach, which explores the tensions between architecture, the human body and landscape through visual and poetic reflection.
About the artist
Sylvain Couzinet-Jacques, born in 1983, is an artist and photographer who graduated from the École des Beaux-Arts de Marseille and the École Nationale Supérieure de la Photographie d'Arles. His work, oscillating between documentary and the visual arts, explores contemporary tensions and utopias, as in his Eden project published in 2016. He is particularly interested in questions of ownership, immaterial data and collective appropriation through works that combine visuals and sculpture. Winner of numerous awards, including the Immersion prize from the Fondation Hermès and the C/O Berlin Talent Award, he has exhibited internationally, notably at the Aperture Foundation and BAL in Paris. Between 2017 and 2018, he was a member of the Académie de France à Madrid - Casa de Velázquez.
