Scala d’Onore, Castello
A. Sheila Hicks
published at 04/02/2021
L’opera originale creata da Sheila Hicks è un’installazione particolare progettata appositamente per la scala d’onore del Castello di Chaumont-sur-Loire nell’ambito di una commissione finanziata dalla Regione Centre-Val de Loire.
“I “satelliti” appesi alle pareti della scala d’onore del Castello sono come costellazioni di un giardino interstellare, interplanetario. Il candore del tufo patinato dal tempo permette un dialogo fecondo con gli infiniti colori delle fibre.
Ciò che mi ha sempre ispirato è il rifiuto della ripetizione, il desiderio di non rifare mai ciò che ho già creato. Desidero inventare continuamente, e creare ogni volta qualcosa che non esiste.
Una delle chiavi di questa sete di rinnovamento permanente si trova negli universi contraddittori della mia infanzia: quello del “general store” posseduto in città da mio nonno materno, in cui avevo il costante imbarazzo della scelta tra una moltitudine di cose, e quello della fattoria di mia nonna paterna Ida, più sobria, in cui dovevo inventare tutto con niente, sempre. Queste influenze opposte sono una delle chiavi della mia perpetua ossessione per la creazione.
Mi piace creare colori che non esistono in natura. Cerco di inventare costantemente nuove scoperte. Così questi satelliti colorati installati sulle pareti offrono shock e sorprese.
Ai miei occhi, tutti i colori possono essere accostati. Dipende dalla quantità dei diversi strati di materiale, dalla quantità di luce e dalla densità delle ombre dei raggi di colore, dai fili di seta o di lino intrecciati e tesi che conferiscono alle opere la loro presenza.
Dal colore nasce un’energia, una forza spirituale, una sensazione di pace.
Senza dubbio i colori generano emozioni pure e parlano direttamente alle anime.” Sheila Hicks, intervistata da Chantal Colleu-Dumond
Sheila Hicks usa il filo, le fibre e i loro colori con un virtuosismo fenomenale, così come un pittore usa i suoi pigmenti.
Ogni creazione è per lei un viaggio, un’esplorazione che intraprende con i meravigliosi volumi colorati e le corde monumentali in un’ampia gamma di fibre naturali e sintetiche, che la accompagnano costantemente e con le quali inventa i suoi universi infinitamente poetici.
Installazioni monumentali o delicati collage e tessiture di lana o lino compongono la stessa scienza del colore di questa immensa artista, che conosce a fondo tutte le pratiche legate al filo, che ha potuto scoprire nei luoghi più insoliti, durante i suoi innumerevoli viaggi di scoperta.
DATI BIOGRAFICI
Sheila HICKS
STATI UNITI
Sheila Hicks nata nel 1934 a Hastings, USA, vive e lavora a Parigi dal 1964. Erede della lunga tradizione dell’arte moderna che ricollega l’astrazione a numerose altre discipline, l’artista americana Sheila Hicks rivisita la tradizione tessile artigianale popolare, eliminando i confini tra pittura e scultura con le sue opere tessili. Dopo essere stata l’allieva di Josef Albers a Yale, inizia a lavorare la fibra in occasione di un viaggio nell’America del Sud dal 1958 al 1959, durante il quale studia le costruzioni decorative artigianali della Colombia, del Cile, del Perù e della Bolivia. La fibra diventa quindi il principale materiale delle sue opere. Sheila Hicks considera il suo lavoro, che trae spunto dai suoi viaggi e dalle culture che ha studiato, come un processo che ha come risultato una vera e propria interazione tra le sue opere e lo spettatore, e anche con l’architettura nella quale sono presentate.
