About this artwork
I have been working for some time on the changes in the placement of sculpture in space. On the new look that we can have depending on the position of the work in relation to the spectator. On the fact that a sculpture becomes "other" depending on the placement we give it. And sometimes even completely different.
It is not the effect given by the position of the spectator who would turn around the sculpture or the orientation of the light source.… It is the sculpture itself which is changed position and which will appear different to the eyes of the spectators.
I don't know of any works that have been done on this subject. Are there any? I don't know.
I propose here research, tests of sculptures which meet these criteria.

« "With the modularity of my sculptures, the spectator/collector is no longer just "looking". They become actors. I wrote the score, they become my interpreters." »
Jean Paul Boyer’s sculptures have been exhibited throughout his native France, Europe and China. Boyer continuously questions how to work with the air, or the “void”, that surrounds the material of the sculpture. He denies having a style, and allows himself the freedom to delve into all interpretations and techniques. His process starts by fabricating a model with any material he happens to have on hand, then the works evolve using wood, metal, marble, cardboard, etc.
