IBISCUBE
2017 – 2018

photographies, vidéos, boîtes entomologiques, cages à oiseaux et bande sonore

IBISCUBE est une narration visuelle imaginaire interrogeant l’architecture et l’habitat dans un paysage naturel. Par un jeu de voltige, Guillaume Martial met en scène un personnage-oiseau, inspiré de l’ibis rouge emblématique de la Guyane. L’animal explore les décors d’urbanisme que les hommes avides de béton lui ont laissé. L’oiseau en cage devient la métaphore troublante de l’humain emprisonné dans son habitat bétonné.
IBISCUBE amène à nous interroger sur l’enfermement des hommes dans un territoire marqué par son histoire carcérale. Par son univers coloré et décalé, le photographe nous offre une histoire toujours empreinte de dérision où la cage à oiseau se transforme en espace de liberté imaginaire et poétique…

IBISCUBE
2017 – 2018

photographs, videos, entomological boxes, bird cages and sound design

IBISCUBE is an imaginary visual story questioning the human housing and the architecture in the middle of the lung of the world: the Amazonia. By a game of acrobatics, Guillaume Martial stages a character-bird, inspired by the symbolic red ibis of the french Guiana, between Brasil and Suriname. The animal explores the setting of urban planning which the men left to him. The bird in cage becomes the disturbing metaphor of the human being imprisoned into its concreted housing environment. IBISCUBE brings to question us about the human confinement in his architecture habitat, with the deal of natural spaces. By his colored and playful universe, Guillaume Martial offers us a story marked by the derision. The bird’s cage transformes itself in a space of imaginary and poetic freedom…
