Born in 1989, Chloé Royer lives and works in Paris. By transforming materials, she explores the potential of metamorphosis latent in all things, inanimate or alive. Playing with the concept of disequilibrium, the artist creates unusual forms and unexpected combinations. Ultimately, her works exist because of points of connection between things, such as skin on skin or surface to surface, drawing on strategies for repair and the care for the items themselves. « Chloé Royer uses naturally pigmented fabrics to bandage the sculptures scattered throughout the exhibition space. Such a practice translates the material aspect of her gesture, and brings her into a physical and almost intimate relationship with the pieces that she cares for with this wrapping technique. Her hybrid seating, part of the Tender Skin series, recalls indeterminate, animal or skeletal forms, naked flesh and exposed wounds. The protruding sculptures displayed on the wall can be perceived as objects of talismanic value that nest and respond to each other as bone nesting. The linen which envelops Chloé Royer’s sculptures is as much a membrane acting as a cataplasm as it suggests an intriguing reference to corporal punishment by the ties and knottings compressing these mutant anatomies. » Text by @camillevelluet translated by @sarahlolley RAMA DA SASA SAY SO AND, with @antoniaphoebebrown & @chloe_royer @fitzpatrick_gallery 123 rue de Turenne, Paris To be seen until Sunday August 28 Last days !
