About this artwork
According to the dictionary, an interlacing is a set of curved lines entwined with each other.
Here you have at your disposal 7 steel blades held on two opposite axes on which they can slide quite easily (it's a blow to take, easy).
This sliding of the blades will quickly change the first appearance, and if you add rotations (of one or more blades) around the axes, you will very quickly have an infinity of new appearances, very often completely… bluffing.
But be careful, the more you go towards complexity, the more difficult it will be for you to return to the original form. In fact, to go back, you simply have to remember the previous gestures and redo them, backwards. The spring steel of which the blades are made is not really fragile if you take care not to bend it strongly.
Good handling, good discovery of unexplored spaces ...

« "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.
