«Lost Postcards» solo show at Zach Studio, Georgetown. Penang. Malaysia

By Exhibitions

“Our evolution as a species has been intermittently linked to this trail of barbarism that we leave at every step.” explains artist Isaac Cordal about the premise of progress dictated by society.

For his solo exhibition, “Lost Postcards” Cordal pays close attention to the human condition and presents his perspective on overtourism through his signature miniature sculptures.

Using photography and sculptures, Cordal emphasises on the double – edged concept of mass tourism. He suggests that tourists are the most effective army in history, and at some point, we are all part of an immense mass that colonises the world. We change into our vacation clothes, just to be part of the machinery called tourism. We open our suitcases in remote places, look out the window and everything becomes an immense set. We stand in huge lines under the sun to confirm that what we see is real, and corresponds to the image described in travel guides. It fills us with vitality to observe that the passage of time and nature have not yet completely overcome the vestiges of the past, and for a moment, a halo of immortality is captured on our memory cards. The terrifying thing is that these places disappear as we visit them.

“Tourism is the finished form of war”– Marc Augé

Follow the leaders – Annecy Paysages. Annecy, France

Lac d´Annecy / Parc Charles Brosson

6 Jullier – 15 September

Dans le bassin d’un ancien embarcadère au bord du lac, Isaac Cordal installe une vingtaine de personnages figurant une assemblée de décideurs débattant des mesures à prendre pour lutter contre le réchauffement climatique. Au delà de tout aspect polémique, l’œuvre s’impose par le rapport à la nature et au temps qu’elle incarne jusqu’à l’absurde.
L’œuvre d’Isaac Cordal, artiste street-art, s’inspire d’une installation éphémère réalisée à Berlin en 2011 et qui fait partie de la série Follow the leaders. Il nous invite à porter une attention particulière sur la relation que nous entretenons avec l’environnement. Les sculptures réalisées en résine polyuréthane peintes sont vissées sur un socle en métal et plongées dans l’eau, laissant libre cours à l’imagination de chacun : débordement des eaux de la planète ou reflet de l’inconscience collective face au bouleversement climatique ? Une invitation à vous laisser submerger par vos pensées…
