With Capsule, Luxembourg Art Week invests a dozen vacant spaces in the city center. Each activated space is visible from the street 24/7. Victor Cord’homme is an artist born in 1991 to a French father, a cinema decorator, and a Danish mother, a painter. He spent most of his childhood between a village near Chartres and Als, a small island in southern Denmark. He graduated from Beaux Arts de Paris in 2017 with honors and developed his work in the studios of Dominique Gauthier in painting and Tadashi Kawamata in sculpture. This learning allowed him to combine painting techniques with those of sculpture such as forging or ceramics. Having been introduced to travel from a young age and nourished by his experiences in Southeast Asia, he imagines installations inspired by his travels and daily life, linking different forms of artistic expression he uses. Each sculpture, each painting plays a specific role in the exhibition space. Symbols, motorized sculptures, and colors strive to present the essence of a world, a poetic and light synthesis or an incarnation of the spectator’s imagination. This is also the case for his latest research conducted at the Grandes Serres de Pantin, which gives rise to interactive sculptures, with solar panels and sensors, reacting directly to elements present in the exhibition space. His paintings, dystopian universes marked by the Anthropocene, represent the exploration of subjects like space conquest, environmental protection, and overconsumption, placing human beings at the heart of his reflections with joy and lightness.
