q) For the people who don't know your work - how would you describe it?
a)What we do at the moment is described generally by the words
photo-montage or photo-collage. We would briefly describe the results of our
activities as paradoxical and plurivocal juxtapositions and reconstructions of
displaced and vandalised fragments of reality. Everything we produce is made by
hand using scissors and glue.
q) What are the key themes running through your practice?
a)We are less concerned with meaning and psychological effects when it
comes to producing art. Our message, if there is any at all, is composed by a plurality of
micro- and pseudo-messages and stances that are critically and ironically aimed
at certain standardized artistic behaviors such as the total subordination of
the title to the visually perceivable work, or the overwhelming mass-production
of pictorial works totally dependent on public exposure and technological
assistance.
q) Your favourite place on earth?
a)The most desirable place on earth would be a little stone house in the
French countryside surrounded by lavender, blue sky and olive trees.
q) What influences your work?
a)We are influenced by the sudden change of our inner tonality and by
the impersonal amplitude of our immediate surroundings. As a direct
consequence, we witness and we are subjected to an activity of movement, sound,
light, contemplation and hand gestures in order to preserve the healthy
lawlessness of a sign-image that has no legs to stand on.
q) What music are you into right now?
a)Traditional African music and Scandinavian jazz.
q) Describe your thought & design process...
a)We cut, we look around, we cut again; our gestures are extremely
gracious and unrestrained. The excess of thought is strictly forbidden and the
final design does not match the unperceivable replica of its own beginnings. We
put together undesired fragments only to disseminate them father and farther
away into a glued compound strictly limited by the margins of a possible
interpretation.
q) Which emerging artists are you looking forward to seeing more of?
a)As there are so many talented artists nowadays, it would be unjust to
pick only a few.
q) Favourite place on the internet?
a)Internet is just a tool. We can’t find anything interesting in
particular about it.
q) Do you have any upcoming projects/exhibitions we should know about?
a)We have our solo exhibition at Leeds College
q) Tell us something we don't know - but should...
a)We should all know that we know nothing.
q) Where can people see more of
your work on the internet?
a)On our Tumblr (http://deuxbricoleurs.tumblr.com) and Facebook page
(http://www.facebook.com/silviundirinaszekely).
