Text by Audrey Bazin

"To all, Jean-Michel Fauquet shows the supreme necessity of the artist to bring forms into being. The work of fabricating these through a succession of plastic practices (drawing, sculpture, painting and photography) is for him what language cannot express. The unusual forms (sculptures) confront the ordinary territories (landscapes) and the sketched worlds (drawings) in order to invoke the off-screen. The important takes place elsewhere. Jean-Michel Fauquet ceases 'to work photography when it grazes the real'. And if André Breton said 'cease to desire myself elsewhere', Jean-Michel Fauquet on the contrary constantly desires the elsewhere. Ours perhaps. At least the one where everyone freely modulates their own access to the world." Audrey Bazin.
