THE ACTION – online – IS THE ARTWORK .
“I invite you to walk slowly on a bridge, as the horizon rises before the sun, at dawn (in the sunset), an object created or found by you, balancing on your head, have a picture taken and send it to this blog. You can be anywhere in the world. Your picture will be added to this page.” Agnès Btffn

The sculpture:
“The concept of “together” that grew in the Btffn project is also present in her choice of materials for her new project. Here, the objects she makes to carry hold themselves together without glue or similar means. She creates, for example, more or less spherical shapes by knotting together sheets of newspaper or by plaiting plastic bags.
This technical choice expresses Btffn’s intention to manifest a harmonious solidarity of the project’s component materials, and to create an essential unity appropriate for each individual object and its component materials. Both simple and complex objects are logically organized in ways that seem to animate them with a unifying force. By constructing the object in this way, the artists seems to be using symbols to concretely manifest the gravitational force that binds and organizes the celestial bodies of the Universe.” Sylvain Berland
