Yannick Liron and Collectif MIX. Create 'Le Principe de l'Œuf Clair'
On October 11, 2003, writer Yannick Liron and the artist collective MIX, consisting of Claire Malrieux, Alex Pou, and Fabien Vallos, showcased 'Le Principe de l'Œuf Clair' at Son'Art in Bordeaux, France. This event, produced by Permanences de la Littérature, sets the stage for a residency in Bordeaux scheduled for autumn 2004. The title alludes to interrupted pregnancy, representing themes of emptiness and clarity. The installation includes a model depicting a fragment of landscape and a documentary inspired by Liron's text, which delves into themes of emptied forms and images that highlight conflict. A pseudo-philosophical commentary enriches the experience, merging reality with fiction and offering a multifaceted perspective for viewers.
