Jordane Saget
Agnès b. regularly invites artists to Japan to provide opportunities for exhibitions and performances. Jordane Saget has collaborated with Agnès b. for the Spring/Summer 2020 collection, but this will be his first visit to Japan.
The exhibition will consist of two round canvases over 2 meters in diameter created especially for this exhibition, some archive photography and video works, and a group of pieces created through a live performance. After his visit to Japan, Jordane also plans to give performances in Aoyama, Shibuya, Teshima, and Setoda.
In the spring of 2015, Jordane began drawing three lines that intersect in layers on public streets, store facades, and subway walls. These enigmatic curves, which resemble arabesques in architectural ornamentation, are created with the ephemeral material of chalk and suddenly appear on street corners without any signature to indicate the artist. Much street art in urban spaces is removed or taken down by the intervention of third parties on the grounds of criminal activity, regardless of the intention behind it or even with meanings that are not controversial. The lines drawn by Jordane, who captures the moment, gradually disappear, leaving traces only in the memories of those who were present and in the digital records. Jordane's temporary use of real space and the images transmitted outside of that real space (like social media), can show how street art can coexist with the city.
