Circulatory systems

​

Damien Viel's artistic approach begins with a first work of archiving, a process constantly nourished by research but also walks in nature and varied readings. Today the collection accumulated by the artist consists of photographs, preparatory sketches, plants, roots, stones and fossils. This step allows the artist to deepen his understanding of the living world and his place within it, but also to memorize the different biomorphic forms and organic structures that surround us. These elements then resurface randomly within his work, creating complex networks called utopian ecosystems.
