"Tribute to the Federated of the Commune"
Jean Chazy
Installation - 12 Inches x 157 Inches

The installation presented evokes the massacre of 1871, in particular the amoncellement of the corpses in the cellars of the fort of Issy-les-Moulineaux by the accumulation on the ground of sanded plates, intertwined and torn, representing faces and symbolizing the bodies bruised, lifeless. It sends us back in a mirror at the risk of our own revolt.
