Homemade sundial dealing with cycles of consumption and season, viewpoint on urban landscape during lockdown and time passing by. It also addresses emptiness regarding both space and time: urbanism and capitalism versus nature and DIY culture.
Ébauches et façonnages entre art et vie. Les données recueillies sont liées à des résidences ou à des enquêtes en cours, destinées à devenir des formes et des publications tout en prenant soin de l’imprévisible
« L’ Odylus accueille pour une nouvelle résidence, dans ce contexte si particulier, l’artiste Cynthia Montier qui met en place un dispositif de conversations et d’interactions quotidiennes autour de la signification abstraite et familière que peut revêtir le mot « magie ».
La magie peut être entendue comme une forme donnée à un savoir intuitif et chargée par des croyances collectives ou individuelles : un moyen d’agir sur le monde matériel par le biais de rituels aussi bien populaires que singuliers.
Depuis le confinement, l’artiste propose un espace d’écoute, de parole et d’action pour prendre position symboliquement et numériquement à mi-chemin entre l’espace intime et l’espace public.
Objets, rituels, traditions, croyances ; exercices d’écriture, partage de récits, promenades inventées, lectures en différé ; les entretiens à distance donnent lieu à des formes discrètes qui allient la parole au geste de l’intérieur à la ville, de manière à les ouvrir à d’autres interprétations possibles.
Le fil de ces échanges dessine en creux un tarot collectif et performatif qui se concrétisera au sortir de la quarantaine, pour conjuguer la force d’intuition et de projection que recouvre la magie comme croyance, l’art comme levier, et l’usage de la cartomancie comme support de lecture collective, de discussions, et de transmission. »
Ju jeni në qytet. Qyteti është në Francë, në pranverën e vitit 2020. Ju jeni në Strasburg. Ju ecni. Vëzhgoni papërsosmëritë, ato që nuk ju pëlqejnë ose ju shqetësojnë, ato që dëshironi të ndryshoni. Arkitektura, hapësira urbane, hapësirat e gjelbërta, aromat, gurët. Vëzhgoni sjelljet, zakonet, gjestet. Vini re se çfarë duhet të ndryshohet.
Pastaj, nëse keni kohë, zbatoni formulën ditën tjetër. Shkruaj atje.
Qyteti, sipas lotëve tuaj, si duket? Farë modifikimi përfshin në jetën reale?
Duke shetitur.
Gjatë shëtitjes tuaj, kapni një gur dhe fotografojeni.
Atëherë, nëse vendosni ta mbani atë dhe ta merrni me vete, zgjidhni një mesazh dhe shkruajeni atë në sipërfaqen e gurit tuaj.
Të nesërmen, hiqni dorë diku, në një shëtitje të re.
Duke shetitur = marche
Qyteti = ville
Shkruaj = écrire
Gurët = pierre
Pëlqejnë = aimer
Besimtar = croyance
Zot = dieu

« Odylus welcomes artist Cynthia Montier for a new residency, in this very particular context of COVID-19. She is setting up a system of conversations and daily interactions around the abstract and familiar meaning that the word « magic » can have.
Magic can be understood as a form given to intuitive knowledge and charged by collective or individual beliefs: a means of acting on the material world through both popular and singular rituals.
From the lockdown, the artist proposes a space for listening, speaking and acting to take a symbolic and numerical position halfway between intimate and public space.
Objects, rituals, traditions, beliefs; writing exercises, sharing of stories, invented walks, deferred readings; remote interviews give rise to discreet forms that combine speech and gesture from inside the city, opening them up to other possible interpretations.
The thread of these exchanges draws a collective and performative tarot that will take shape after the age of forty, to combine the force of intuition and projection that covers magic as a belief, art as a lever, and the use of fortune-telling as a support for collective reading, discussion and transmission. »
