NIGHTNIGHT
En collaboration avec Laurent Poleo-Garnier, NIGHTNIGHT est une archive d’images et de textes issus de sources différentes abordant le thème de la nuit.
Au fil du livre telle une fête qui dégénère avec la fatigue, l’alcool et autres stimulants, les images et la mise en page se détériorent, les sujets se fatiguent, la vision se trouble…
Le livre est chapitré par des extraits d’un texte de l’artiste Pierre Paulin dont un interview réalisé avec ce dernier en fait la couverture.

In collaboration with Laurent Poleo-Garnier, “NIGHTNIGHT’’ is an archive of images and texts from various sources —including The Kandinsky Library research and documentation center— tackling the theme of night life. Going through the book, as a party that wanes with tiredness, alcohol and other stimulants, the images and layout deteriorate, the subjects get tired, and the vision blurry. The book is interspersed with excerpts from a text by the artist Pierre Paulin. The book cover is an interview of him. The world of drag queens is profoundly anchored in this book; combined with the “Nails’’ project and influenced by the many women that have shaped me, I had the idea of the ready-made stilettos installation mentioned above and brought to life in the exhibition with Jean-Louis Bruyère in Brussels.
