    Laser photocopies, A3 X 5
    From primitive gestures, eRikm makes a laser photocopier motherboard bug, producing a thin streaked colour gradation on the blank page. Mistakes, tremors, and shuffle code entering generate the incident, converting the original picture into stretched calculation points. A framework appears : a set of lines containing information from an unknown and vanished source. Its reproduction ad infinitum screens the last visible tracks until they almost disappear.

    Drawing, A4 X 5
    While the radio broadcasts once again the famous General De Gaulle’s appeal of June 18, eRikm stares at a ray of sunlight from a window shutter on his studio floor. With a white sheet of paper, he tries to capture the circle of light. The drawings graphically convey a solar movement follow-up : each loop sequences the ray shifting through time and space. The process, punctuated by pauses upsetting the rhythmic line, stretches until the fatal very moment of its disappearing.

    ErikM’s relationship with ink aesthetics and shodō calligraphy (書道, "the way of writing") began accidentally and empirically in 2010 with the Liquides series. The artist repurposed broken LCD, LED, and cathode ray screens, transforming their original function to reveal moving images : liquid landscapes born from the "death" of the device. This work already extended a critical approach to consumerism and (…)

    Transitional objects, or the release of children’s dreams and nightmares buried within their stuffed toys. This series consists of medium-format works (A2/A1). My initial impulse (post-Echoplasme) came from a desire to work in larger formats with a theme other than Yōkai. The Echoplasme series was created with very limited means during the first lockdown.

  • Codé_in
    18 avril 2001, par erikm

    Collage, A4
    Codé_in is a collage conceived like a transfer support. The device appeals to a self-projection into time and space, notions virtually embodied by the line pattern. On the page, an encoded (on codeine ?) character is inlayed on the surface of an encrypted screen, and cast into the psychic space of a sequential memory. Its unstable posture and fixed position convey this idea of displacement and of a quest for anchorage, revealing the artist’s characteristic nomadism.
