La mort aux trousses... la mort aux trousses... J'aime beaucoup ce film d'Hitchcock où le personnage principal essaie d'échapper à la mort en fuyant.

La mort aux trousses... la mort aux trousses... J'aime beaucoup ce film d'Hitchcock où le personnage principal essaie d'échapper à la mort en fuyant. C'est un hommage humoristique et un tant soit peu grinçant que j'ai voulu rendre à ce film avec ce Broken Toys tentant d'échapper à la mort bien qu'elle ait commencé à lui grignoter la jambe... comme une sorte de piège à loup dentaire... Et pourtant notre brave héros essaie de fuir... courageusement... Mais réussira t-il à s'échapper ? C'est à vous de voir !

Technique: light painting, photo prise avec un Canon 5 DS (50 millions de pixels), Tirage lambda (impression argentique) contrecollée sur Dibond.

Loïc Jugue is a French artist and photographer who is one of the pioneers of French video art. He works in particular on the notion of reality, its representations and on the process of destruction of this reality. Since 2016, he has been working on a protean series: photos, videos, sculptures, installations that he calls Broken toys.

When his parents died, he took back his old toys, faithful companions of his childhood with multiple roles: comforters, confidants, martyrs or scapegoats. Rather than see them go to the dumpster or in some trash can, he decided to destroy them himself and make a series of them which he called: The Broken toys.

Continuing this process, he offered other people, relatives or strangers, to pass him their old toys. And rather that they disappear into oblivion, to transform them into an artistic work... Strange irony, to destroy in order to better safeguard.

His Broken toys are therefore created from used toys, often abandoned, that are given to him or that he buys at flea markets and to which he makes them undergo a certain number of transformations under the action of fire or other processes of destruction.

These are sorts of mini-sketches where he uses the toys like actors, moreover he photographs them like humans by putting the camera at their height.

The Broken toys are dramas, but also more or less gritty comedies, dealing with many themes: philosophy, love, suffering, religion, death, pollution, etc.

His Broken toys are at the same time playful, sarcastic and encourage a certain existential reflection… Aren't we those toys?

Loïc Jugue was born in Paris in 1958, he is a French artist who lives and works in Fontenay-sous-Bois, as well as in his other studio in the Baie de Somme. Former television producer (Canal +, M6, etc.), graduate of the Image and Sound Research Center, since 1983 he has created installations, video sculptures, mono-bands as well as photographs.
