decycles

  Frédérique Morrel The French artist Frédérique Morrel was horrified to discover that when her grandmother died, all of her handicrafts were thrown away. Since then, she has been pursuing the idea of bringing her grandmother’s works back to life in order to revive the passion that was inherent in them. In the process, she has developed a completely new artistic concept that “ decycles ” unnoticed and unvalued pop artifacts, thus helping them make the transition to a new life cycle.  ** Thankfully, no animals were harmed in the making of  Frédérique Morrel’s art.  The horns and fur are real; the rest is a mix of taxidermy molds and vintage needlework.  While amusing and perhaps a bit shocking, the trophies that adorn the Seventh Floor are “tame” compared to some of Frédérique’s other work which include life size horses, deer, wild boar and even humans (which they call “ ghosts ”.)  If the artists’ goal is to “re-enchant” our world, then

A rare visit from far away friends led us to 'Rivers' by Tania Kovats currently exhibited at Jupiter Art Land.  In a boat shed next to a pond of moulting swans, beautiful bottles of water stand proud on their shelves holding close their amazing, translucent, life-giving magic . . . water. 100 hundred samples of water from 100 rivers. 

“I think water has a memory. It is our solvent that carries the sediments of place, time and experience.” Tania Kovats
