Marguerite Humeau–DUST
在「DUST」中展出的作品延續了 Humeau 的主要地景藝術作品「Orisons」（2023）的探索線索，該作品位於科羅拉多州聖路易斯谷的一個160英畝的休耕農作物圈內。在這樣做的過程中，「Orisons」將藝術家的關注點置於生命的持續性和韌性之中，介於由穩定東風驅動的連綿沙丘、地平線的壯麗景象和廣闊的開放天空、動物骨骸和游牧雜草之間。為了認識這個充滿生命和層層歷史的獨特地點，Humeau 試圖設計一個短暫的藝術干預，同時慶祝這片土地作為藝術作品本身的價值。
The works featured in ''DUST'' continue a line of inquiry originating in Humeau’s major land artwork ‘Orisons’ (2023), which takes place in a single 160-acre fallow crop circle in Colorado’s San Luis Valley. In so doing, ‘Orisons’ situates one artist’s concerns within the greater scheme of the persistence and resilience of life, between the rolling sand dunes driven by a consistent eastward wind, the drama of the horizon and expansive open sky, the remains of animal bones and nomadic weeds. In recognition of this unique site teeming with life and layered histories, Humeau sought to devise an ephemeral artistic intervention that would at the same time celebrate the land as artwork in and of itself.

在「DUST」中，Humeau 創作了一系列複雜的雕塑，這些雕塑將「Orisons」的激活點可視化為時空門戶。通過結合各種材料——包括銅線、青銅和玻璃、未上釉的赤陶、縞瑪瑙和歐根紗——的組合，「Orisons」錯綜複雜的歷史以三維形式呈現出來。諸如「重力的釋放」、「提取管」、「扭曲」和「地球遷徙的守護者」（均為2024年）等作品，以流暢的曲線和上升的螺旋形狀，飽滿的、聚集的線索暗示著沸騰的能量團。這些形式如旋風般向上湧動，喚起了元素力量的科學模型以及藝術史中對精神的描繪。
For ''DUST'', Humeau has created a series of intricate sculptures that visualise the activation points of ‘Orisons’ as spacetime portals. Through compositions that combine an array of materials – including copper wire, bronze and glass, unglazed terracotta, onyx and organza – the complexly enmeshed histories of ‘Orisons’ take three-dimensional form. Works such as release of gravity, extraction pipes, the twist and the guardian of Earth migrations (all 2024) describe this with sweeping curves and ascending coils, and tumid, clustered threads suggestive of roiling masses of energy. Funnelling upwards in cyclonic formation, their forms invoke the scientific modelling of elemental forces, as well as art historical depictions of the spiritual.

與雕塑同步發展的是一套在紙上進行的作品，通過層層稀釋的顏料來表達旋轉的離心能量。這些名為「圓形景觀作為時空網絡的入口」的新系列紙上作品提供了另一種方式，讓藝術家將不可見的存在可視化。通過多種製圖技術，例如靈魂攝影或自動繪畫，Humeau 再次努力使無法看見的事物可見，並提出直覺和記憶可以通過紙上的手勢標記來銘刻。展覽的最後一部分是由 Julia Andréone 和 Florine Bonaventure 在「Orisons」現場拍攝的照片，其中一些是大幅打印的，另一些是小幅的。這種尺度的變化引起了我們對生命形式如何被其環境的廣大所掩蓋的注意，將引發生命的巨大時間循環與較微小的現象聯繫起來，無論是人類、土壤還是塵埃。
Developed in tandem with the sculptures, a suite of works on paper engage with whirling, centrifugal energies through layers of watered-down pigment. Titled ‘a circular landscape as an access to the nets of spacetime’, this new series of works on paper offers another means by which the artist has visualised unseen presences. Evoking diverse techniques of image-making, such as spirit photography or automatic drawing, Humeau once more endeavours to render visible that which cannot be seen, positing that intuition and memory can be inscribed through the gestural marking of paper. The final component of the exhibition are photographs taken by Julia Andréone and Florine Bonaventure at the site of ‘Orisons’ during the artist’s time there, some printed in large format and others small. This play with scale draws our attention to the way in which life forms are dwarfed by the immensity of their environments, linking the great temporal cycles that engender life to humbler phenomena, whether human, soil or dust.

Marguerite Humeau（1986年生於法國Cholet）現居倫敦工作。她於2011年獲得倫敦皇家藝術學院的碩士學位。Humeau 的作品曾參加第59屆威尼斯雙年展（由Cecilia Alemani策展）和第23屆悉尼雙年展（均為2022年）。2023年，Humeau 在科羅拉多州聖路易斯谷創作了160英畝的土地藝術作品「Orisons」，這是由女性藝術家單獨創作的最大地景藝術之一。該作品由總部位於丹佛的Black Cube Nomadic Art Museum 策展和製作。
Marguerite Humeau (b.1986, Cholet, France) lives and works in London. She received her MA from the Royal College of Art, London, in 2011. Humeau’s work was included in the 59th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia curated by Cecilia Alemani and the 23rd Biennale of Sydney (both 2022). In 2023, Humeau created the 160-acre earthwork ‘Orisons’ in San Luis Valley, Colorado, one of the largest earthworks ever produced by a solo female artist. It was curated and produced by Black Cube Nomadic Art Museum, headquartered in Denver.
