Catalogue Note
"Restons immobiles: un carré impeccable se dessine, superposé sur un carré plus grand - le panneau du fond. Tout ici respire le calme, l'harmonie, l'équilibre. C'est la sérénité d'un Mondrian. (...) Bougeons un peu: voici que s'animent ces géométries régulières et que commence- discrète, ténue, toute nourrie d'élégance - une petite agitation, une sorte d'incertitude, comme un doute sur la compacité du réel, sur l'ordre immuable des choses."
