For several years, the artist has confronted his own experience of time with durations that exceed it: those of minerals and, more broadly, geological processes. By bringing into friction scales that are usually irreconcilable — a few decades against hundreds of millions of years — he builds syncretic constellations where micro- and macro-temporalities converge, not to relativize human experience, but to shift its coordinates. The exhibition thus brings together different tools for understanding reality whose validation regimes differ, but to which the artist grants the same operative value. At Halle Nord, an ensemble of shaped sculptures, found objects or gradually altered by erosion processes involving both human and material agents composes an environment where nothing appears definitively stabilized. Through a series of interventions that unfold both inside and outside the exhibition space, the artist seeks to produce a form of
