Plus rien ne s’oppose à la nuit

Losing the notion of time and entering the well-lit night by the neon sign. Losing its shapes, accepting the metamorphose of things and their ill-defined form. Night is a result of day that can however escape its absurd laws. It intrigues, questons, scares as much as its lets someone fantazise. At nightfall, this work appears like a message in the public space, an intrigue which the passer-by is invited to grasp before continuing on his way. In the daytime, the unlit neon sign lets its words float away, fragments for well-known lyrics as a source of imaginaton. Plus rien ne s’oppose à la nuit, irony of a judgment that hangs on to an lit neon sign fighting against the darkness. Strange poetry of an object emanating from a will to rekindle stars, as asserted Guillaume Apollinaire.
