Amplifier Art Installation, Sweden

Scandinavia’s biggest public art biennial, running for twelve weeks in the city of Örebro in Sweden – Baptiste Debombourg has realized a work inspired by the crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic. The idea behind the work is to distort our perception of the space and the feeling of home, and to shift the visual experience by building and deconstructing perception in order to open minds to the hidden layers of reality.

The caravan – a symbol of freedom for many – is sliced up and presented in a lacerated state. The opportunity to head out on an adventure is gone, as is the spontaneity to make our dreams come true, and to decide the course of our own lives. Baptiste Debombourg calls attention to – and condemns – how during the pandemic, the world’s decision-makers stopped people’s movement and extinguished freedom.

With strong role models in the art and music communities, he turns devastation into an artistic tool. In this destructive spirit, hope remains that something new will sprout. The work oscillates between demolition and transformation, becoming a growing, overwhelming desire for freedom and independence. These are the core values of Debombourg’s art.

About Baptiste Debombourg
In his predominantly sculptural work, Baptiste Debombourg combines information and materials in experiments that unveil repressed, unspoken, or ignored stories. A willing “restorative” artist, he repairs walls, furniture, and objects, while at the same time exposing their marks. His work asserts itself primarily by its monumentality, but it is paradoxical, precarious, and fragile.

It is a monument, as if in a state of convalescence, which pays tribute to destruction, to incomplete repair, even to resilience, rather than power. This play of mobile reconstruction, beyond its ironic aspect, is fueled by a reflection on time, history, memory, and dreams – (excerpt) Guillaume Désanges, art critic, exhibition curator, and current president of Palais de Tokyo in Paris.
