Inspirée de "De rerum natura" de Lucrèce
Le clinamen, une infime déviation des atomes que Lucrèce décrit dans De rerum natura (Livre II). Selon la physique épicurienne, les atomes chutent verticalement dans le vide, mus uniquement par la gravité. Mais, écrit Lucrèce, il arrive que, sans cause apparente, ils s’écartent légèrement de leur trajectoire, un écart si subtil qu’on peine à en mesurer l’ampleur.
C’est ce minuscule dérèglement qui rend possible toute création. Sans lui, les atomes tomberaient éternellement, sans jamais se rencontrer, comme une pluie figée dans l’infini. Le monde resterait vide, figé dans la nécessité. Par ce geste de rupture, aussi discret soit-il, naît la collision, l’interaction, et donc la nature elle-même.
Les lignes noires parallèles représentent une structure ordonnée, mécanique, quasi déterministe, un univers régi par des lois fixes, à l’image des atomes tombant en ligne droite dans le vide selon Lucrèce.
Les lignes orange verticales perturbent cet ordre sans le briser complètement. Elles s’insèrent dans les zones rayées sans respecter leur inclinaison, introduisant une différence, une anomalie: le clinamen visuel.
Leur alignement précis renforce l’idée d’un écart minime mais fondamental, capable de transformer un système rigide en un espace ouvert à la rencontre, à l’inattendu.
Cette œuvre peut être vue comme une métaphore graphique du clinamen : un monde structuré et linéaire (les trames) légèrement dévié par des lignes intruses (les clins), provoquant des frictions, des interactions et des potentialités nouvelles. C’est un exemple de comment une œuvre abstraite peut illustrer un concept philosophique fondamental à travers un jeu formel minimal mais chargé de sens.
Related themes
Jean-Marc Gardeux is a contemporary French artist whose work is driven by three interdependent questions that shape his artistic approach. First, in a world overwhelmed with visual stimuli, he asks how to create less to achieve more—simplicity to evoke complexity, emptiness to generate fullness. Second, he seeks to invite the viewer to find personal meaning in what is not explicitly stated but only suggested in his work. Third, he explores how deliberate minimalism can convey movement by balancing harmony and disruption.
These questions are central to his artistic process. The first reflects his creative method, the second characterizes the viewer's relationship with his art, and the third ties them together, establishing a dialogue between his experience and that of the audience. Jean-Marc's work is a silent rebellion against excess and visual overload, designed to offer clarity and tranquility. He envisions a world where people slow down and seek meaning in the essential, stripping art to its core to evoke movement, provoke reflection, and bridge the physical with the conceptual.
His art is not about originality for its own sake or conforming to trends. Instead, Jean-Marc carves his own path, creating works that authentically reflect his personal experiences. Viewers often recognize his pieces as distinctly his, even without knowing the artist behind them. As he moves forward, Jean-Marc intends to deepen the radical nature of his approach, always maintaining his creative constraint: to keep it simple, acknowledging that simplicity is a complex endeavor.
