Centre des impôts, rue Paganini, Paris 20e – crayon noir aquarellable, page du livre 2006 (L’Association).

A look inside the book Do Insects Play ?, published in 2019 by Chose Commune.  ‘Do Insects Play?’ is an insight into French artist Johanna Tagada Hoffbeck’s playful and mindful practice, one that is frequently informed by the environment in which she finds herself. The artworks contained in this book are a curated selection of soft and vibrant collages from the ongoing series Cocooning – composed of various found papers, paintings and textiles, along pieces from To End is to Start, a new body of works created out of repurposed cotton fibres and water. The pieces have all been produced during a 2018 – 19 residency in South India where Johanna Tagada Hoffbeck deepened her knowledge and practice of hand papermaking. A short story by the artist is presented alongside the artworks, appearing as a gentle melody dancing throughout the pages.

Pas tout à fait la vie en rose mais presque...

Papiers. Histoire. Art.
