Coloured pencils on wall
Dismantled work
Four words written in coloured pencils on the wall, in large-scale letters overlapping each other, refer to the venue and the year of the exhibition for which the work was made.
“Four words with four letters each mark the context concerned by this work: LIEU / ELAC / LYON / 1980. They make up a row where each word is singled out by its own chromatic path (Lieu-red / Elac-blue / Lyon-yellow / 1980-green)”.1
