Maxime Lamarche, Les Sirènes chantent toujours faux
Espace Vallès, Saint-Martin-d’Hères
With Maxime Lamarche, objects are combined and transformed. The artist interrelates forms and references, mixing genres, sometimes to the point of absurdity: a car floats, a boat that is no longer watertight takes to the road, a fly-case proves too heavy to move… The artist’s highly personal vocabulary finds inspiration in the world of cinema and television series and develops considerations on the status of sculpture. For the Espace Vallès de Saint-Martin-d’Hères, Maxime Lamarche tackles the practice of forging (among other subjects), surprising visitors in his own characteristic way and inviting them into his world. He thus brings the paradoxes of our society into play, according to various points of view and on different scales.
