Julia Morlot
"White or black, matte or circular, Cameos are ceramic bas-reliefs revealing fragments of anonymous or shattered bodies among small, stringy excrescences. There's something both pleasing and painful in watching these bodies suspended between appearance and disappearance. [...] One thinks of Ovid's Metamorphoses, of the mythical Daphne becoming a laurel...
to escape Apollo's eagerness [...] We think of psychoanalysis, of the capacity of sensation to bring consciousness to a point other than the body, of hysteria that paralyzes the hand, ear or leg. Cameos are bearers of sensuality. Julia Morlot's works are often situated in this interstice between anxiety and gentleness,
strangeness and seduction. Florence Andoka
