Idea-images

I don’t often celebrate my birthday. I mean I don’t throw large parties. I invited many people for my 35^th birthday outside the Folies bar (I was born at the end of June). The larger gathering was then to celebrate my 500 months (which is approximately 41 years 1/2). My invitation was sent by email with this electronic flyer: 500 sticks representing 500 months.

A second attached document was sent: the Jamen#2 (* “Ibring #2”: a pun with the words “J’amène” meaning I bring). It was made on the basis of the first Jamen that Benoît and I created for our housewarming party. The Jamen is a funny tool to tell guests what they can bring. It also allows a good distribution between food and drinks.

I sent two cards to my nephews 2 or 3 weeks before the beginning of their baccalauréat exam (they were taking it the same year). They passed it !

Here are 2 examples of objects whose first use was replaced by another: the tissue-paper-hanger and the plastic-bag-carrier-swimsuit.

These 2 images hang in the room of my two daughters. They date back from the first days of their lives. A big womb seen front, 15 days before delivery, has the same exact shape than an egg! It can seem quite obvious. But does anyone think about it? I had to show the photographs, which were the basis of the drawing of the outline along with my demonstration. I hope I’m not shocking anybody. Hannah’s egg has its top at the top, Jeanne’s egg is upside down.

I’m fascinated by eggs in general, by their symmetrical as well as dissymmetrical shapes.
