Michel GOYON

For almost thirty years, Michel Goyon has been creating a fascinating virtuoso game of colouring and cutting with notebooks which take the form of animated books one could compare to pop-up books. This multidimensional work invites us to witness the hybridisation of imaginations. A hybridisation which, because of its kinetic dimension, acquires almost cinematic aspects. The artist not only finds inspiration in comic strips, illustration, and even more so in a very specific comic strip “genre”, i.e. that of science-fiction, but also in general dictionaries and encyclopaedias which he consults avidly and from which he draws patterns, images he integrates and reinterprets in his world and in his own unique and personal way.
