With this work, Philippe Fares approaches an important phase in the construction of large buildings: deep foundations.
The sculpture evokes a section of dip tube used to concrete a pile in depth, from the good ground, to the coast of the future paving of the building.
The surface aspect as well as the earthy color of DEEP FOUNDATION 1/6 correspond to the reality of the ground. Clay slurry, concrete and sludge mix together in extra thickness on… the surface of the plunger tube, when it comes out of the ground, during the concreting of the piles.
The surface treatment by oxidation gives the whole a rusty appearance, suggesting the bad weather and the mechanical stresses, which the drilling equipment undergoes on the sites.
With FONDATION PROFONDE 1/6, Philippe Fares gives us a raw work, which reconnects with the major projects of his former life.
Philippe Fares is a contemporary French artist whose career has been profoundly shaped by the diversity of cultures and the interaction of art and science. His unique perspective, sharpened by a childhood spent in sub-Saharan Africa, is a testament to his early exposure to the art world, particularly to the influence of primitive arts. Returning to France at the age of 16, Philippe embarked on a path that allowed him to cultivate his understanding of Western arts while pursuing scientific studies.
Philippe Fares’ artworks are meticulously constructed using scientific methods and careful planning. His creations often feature a recurring tiling pattern, a meticulously balanced play with chance. This synthesis of meticulous design and the unpredictability of chance gives his works a dynamic and intriguing quality.
