INSTEAD OF WRITING
Référence :
Collages and ink on paper.
A work by Maryi, visual artist.
The “Scriptures” series explores the limits of language and the difficulty of approaching meaning through words. Writing is seen not as a tool of mastery, but as a fragile attempt, always in tension with what escapes it. Fragmented, displaced, recomposed, the elements bear witness to this moment when language wavering. Each page, inhabited by its own story, retains the trace of a dazzling moment, like a perfume or a resonance. Writing becomes almost a material, a gesture, making visible the very place of the ineffable.

Inspiration: To write is to brush. Words advance, emerge and immediately move, slip and evade, insufficient. They will never reach the nuances of what they seek to grasp. To write is to experience the trembling of meaning, to come back incessantly, to rectify, to refine, to fail again. It is to inhabit this gap and try to reduce it to the infinitesimal. Painting, tearing, and recomposing in collages are ways to ward off fate, to push the limit a little more. To capture the dazzling truth of the moment before words disturb the obvious.

Maryi
France
Maryi explores on paper the thresholds between emptiness and fullness, light and shadow. Through painting, collage, ink and wax, she seeks not to depict but to reveal. Her works, both organic and pared back, capture the ephemeral, the fragment, the breath — a poetry of imperfection, transition and transformation.
