His multidisciplinary production encompasses painting, drawing, installations, and performance. Often, these practices converge, finding the artist manipulating fragmented decorative objects and textiles, which extend the work beyond its frame. These extensions reveal a clash between sculpture and painting, staged by Razafimandimby.The artist brings a world inherited from the past back to life, making reference to French cinema of the 1960s, jazz music, design, and postwar architecture. He pays particular attention to the history of interior decoration and ornamentation, as well as social conventions and the “good manners” traditionally linked to a conservative way of life and promoted by a classist bourgeois system.Jessy Razafimandimby’s obsessions take place principally within the home, and the practice of the artist is accordingly criss-crossed with references to domesticity and collective memory. Coexisting in his paintings are human figures and animals - but also chimerical figures that express Razafimandimby’s utopic and dystopic projections. These seem at times to merge, to mutate into new and complex forms that reveal the artist’s interest in the question of becoming. It is not as much what we become, as with whom we become it - the collective experience - that Razafimandimby interrogates.The figures detailed by the artist are extracted from a pictorial space in which they could be contained, and projected into a present, sensorial space, that of the exhibition. In such a way, he conceives joyously disordered, agitated environments, inspired by fictional domestic environments inhabited by strange masses of objects and drapery, ghostly in affect.These territories are inhabited by Razafimandimby’s fictional hosts, becoming a vestigial space in which the artist engages physically, employing the household as a metaphorical framework to question notions of taste, belonging, and power. He interrogates the ability of humans to construct relations with their environment, at times merging with it. These relations are imbued with attention, tenderness, and confusion. ...
Sans titre is a gallery based in Paris. It initially operated as a project space and after three years of a nomadic existence (2016 – 2019) and numerous atypical spaces occupied (private apartments, industrial spaces, parking lots, a shipyard, a few hotel rooms, restaurants, etc.), Sans titre moved into a permanent address and embraced the gallery model. It is now located 13, rue Michel Le Comte, a few steps from the Centre Pompidou, in a former Restoration-era bar, whose facade is registered as a Historic Monument. Throughout, Sans titre works to promote international artists in the early stages of their careers. Alongside organizing exhibitions in a multidisciplinary approach, the gallery publishes fanzines, produces edition and creates events related to the represented artists. ...
