Sinopsis

Premier livre consacré à Mathieu Van Assche et à ses "photographies sabotées" "Depuis plusieurs années, je récupère, achète et collecte de vieilles photos, d'anciens portraits d'identité et photos de famille issues d'une autre époque. Petit à petit, j'ai commencé à dessiner au posca (feutre peinture) à même ces photos originales, d'abord comme un jeu et sans projet particulier. Ensuite, comme le support me plaisait parti­culièrement, j'ai continué à développer cette approche en mettant en place un dialogue entre l'illustration et le support photographique. Je me suis mis à masquer les visages en m'éloignant de ces portraits un peu figés pour y amener une forme de folie, de mystère, d'étrangeté. Puisant mon inspiration tant dans l'effervecence des quartiers populaires que dans l'imagerie du sacré, ou dans la tradition du masque dans les sociétés dites primitives, les pistes se brouillent et naît un univers qui devient mien. Mon monde est à la fois onirique et cabossé, peuplé de doux monstres et de créatures fantasmagoriques dans lequel le spectateur se laissera entraîner presque malgré lui". Mathieu Van Assche

De la contraportada

First book about Mathieu Van Assche and his 'sabotaged photographs'

"For several years I have been retrieving, buying and collecting old photographs, old identity portraits and family photographs from an earlier era. Little by little I started drawing with a Posca felt-tip painting pen, on the originals, initially just for the fun of it and without anything specific in mind. Later on, as I really liked that support, I continued to develop that approach by initiating a dialogue between the illustration and its photographic support. I started masking the faces, moving away from those rather set portraits to introduce a form of mystery, of uncanny. I derive my inspiration both from the effervescence in less affluent neighbourhoods and from the imagery of the sacred or in the tradition of masks in so-called 'primitive' societies. The sources merge, creating a universe which I can call mine. The sources merge, creating a universe that is both dream-like and a bit bashed up, inhabited by nice monsters and phantasmagoric creatures."
