Fascinated since childhood by 17th-century Vanitas paintings and deeply influenced by history, he explores the human condition through an existentialist lens. His work highlights the constant tension between our free will and the determinisms (social, geographical or philosophical) that shape us.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>A medium rich in memories<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To give voice to these questions, Fabrice Leroux draws on raw, time-worn materials: ash, rust and wear and tear. These elements, imbued with traces and history, become metaphors for a fragile yet precious life. As he points out: \u201cI often contrast strength with fragility. It is in this fragility that the value of existence lies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Body and human connection at the Heart of the Work<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Beyond the object itself, the artist often places his own body at the centre of the creative process. In performance-based projects such as \u2018Je suis l\u2019expo\u2019, he himself becomes both the medium and the venue for the exhibition, breaking down the traditional distance between himself and the audience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This approach aims to foster an intimate encounter. Fabrice Leroux\u2019s installations are conceived as spaces for confrontation, where the viewer is invited to enter his \u2018inner home\u2019. The artist regularly speaks of these special moments when a visit gives way to a genuine exchange, touching on matters of intimacy, life and death.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-41316","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabriceleroux.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/41316","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabriceleroux.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabriceleroux.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabriceleroux.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabriceleroux.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41316"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fabriceleroux.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/41316\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabriceleroux.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
