L’appel

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.
