Ne vous est-il jamais arrivé de triturer un vieux ticket de métro entre deux stations ? Moi je l'ai fait durant six mois (en 2004 année magique) en me demandant comment lui donner une forme cool.

Have you ever fiddled around with an old metro ticket between two stops? I did it for six months (in 2004, magical year) while wondering how I could give it a cool shape. I'm very proud of how it turned out and I feel like I am the author of a little masterpiece. I got to the point where I asked myself whether the Parisian metro tickets hadn't actually been designed to enable me to one day use it as a canvas for this "work." Their proportions and even the patterns and drawings on them take part in the whole of the work. I'm not kidding, I find that there is a great underlying mystery here

I doubt I will ever do something like this again in the future, which is why I would like to present these to your, eyes and maybe even hands, today.
