About the “Celsius” series from my artistic project “Human Impact”
Through the “Celsius” series, composed of paintings bearing the title of heat records set around the world in recent years, HU/Lie delivers an excessive vision of the impact that the repeated effect of increasing temperatures would have on human physiology. Lacking time to hope for a saving genetic adaptation, he sketches the beginnings of bodily disintegration where drying out of the skin and burning of the flesh would constitute the collateral damage of human activity on Man.
Our faces with their innocent, sensitive, joyful or worried expressions, and whose features are outlined on hidden warning messages, gradually fade behind a material tortured by an invisible flame, giving way to the scars of consumption.
The vulnerability of the being contrasts with the seriousness of the situation where only the distress seems to be part of the near, probable and perhaps already irreversible future.
And yet…
Beyond the cause, the glow of these same looks, the furrows of these same faces, these same human beings constitute the solution. Through the mirror effect of his paintings where each look could be ours, Hu/Lie invites the viewer to seek the deep meaning of his reflections, his excesses and his actions.
“The future is not what will happen but what we will do” Henry Bergson
Related themes
Hu Lie is a contemporary French plastic artist, whose pseudonym—derived from "Hu(manity is a) lie"—reflects his introspective and expansive creative philosophy. His artistic journey began in the early 1990s with graffiti on urban landscapes, and since then, his work has evolved into paintings and installations that explore the role of humanity in modern society. This recurring theme has both fascinated and provoked him throughout his career.
A self-taught artist, Hu Lie later formalized his artistic education by graduating from the Faculty of Plastic Arts in Strasbourg. His creative path is deeply intertwined with his involvement in social and cultural associations, where he holds various responsibilities, combining his art with a sense of activism.
Now a professional plastic artist, Hu Lie lives and works in Listrac-Médoc, Gironde, France. Through his art, he leaves behind "pictorial traces," using ephemeral materials and conveying powerful, militant emotions, continuing to provoke thought about the ways humans are utilized and perceived in the world.
