For the exhibition Inside, artists Christophe Berdaguer and Marie Péjus (born respectively in 1968 and 1969, live and work in Paris and Marseille) present their installation E.17 Y.40 A.18 C.28 X.40 0.13,5 composed of a series of sculptures based on drawings made by patients during a psychological test in which they were asked to draw a tree. Each drawing channels unconscious determinations from within the patient whose psychological state generates

a set of forms and constructions. The three-dimensional materialization of these drawings creates shared and sharable “self-portraits” that we can relate to, from the standpoint of our own histories, traumas and failures. Berdaguer & Péjus manipulate symptoms of existence such as emotions and pathologies in order to generate forms, revealing the state of the world and the way in which people continuously invent new remedies to adapt to the necessities of their time.
