Paul P at Sans titre

By: Hugo Bausch Belbachir

Paul P. is an artist whose work centers on the representation of the homosexual model, with a keen awareness of the doubling of lived experience within homosexual history. By this I mean that it is – at least, it has been, for me – necessary never to dissociate the experience of Paul P.’s work from the experience of homosexuality: mine, his, ours. This stance toward the artist’s work is decisive, insofar as Paul P. employs a system of representation proper to Queer narrative – at once intimate and collective – within spatial situations that redirect each represented subject toward his inner consciousness. I am speaking, of course, of that homosexual familiarity with dream and fear; of that space in which we remain, throughout our entire lives, existentially alone.
