Loic Tarin (Doudoudidon)
Man is an animal genetically programmed
to create its legends: this is an unequivocal
and powerful truth, of which art is an archetypal manifestation. Compelled by this innate
irrepressible momentum and with primordial spontaneity, Doudoudidon strives in his figurations
of aurochs, mammoths and bison to rediscover the gestures of the first cave artists. These are
often associated with tags and graffitti, as if to
affirm the relationship, the genealogical continuity
experienced between both graphic expressions.
The history of our species – let alone of our
genetic makeup – is very recent in comparison with that of the kingdom of living things
as a whole. Doudoudidon, deeply marked,
almost mesmerized, by the theory of evolution
and the figure of Charles Darwin, repeatedly refers
to it in his work to remind us of our real
origins and of our modest condition. Sometimes,
in irony, when his paintings feature improbable toons or degenerate super-heroes ; often, with amazement, when faced with the wonders and mysteries of our universe ; but sometimes, with the sad eye of an Earthling, seeing in fauna and flora a part of this beauty, in the yet brief span
of his own life, ineluctably being extinguished.
Devoted to the great cycles that lead us, totems appear as a leitmotif in his work :
Madonnas, heroines and mermaids, seldom
prudish, promises of fertility.
Representations of pregnancy, often radiographic in nature, , sometimes using recycled medical
radiographs as a support ; and regularly
inscribed, as if they were mandalas, in a wider circle evoking evolution or even more mystic spheres.
Bionic creatures and post-apocalyptic scenes, always imbued with some derision and mischief. In fact, Doudoudidon loathes the idea of preaching or putting-on-airs.His work is infused with
natural benevolence and it is with genuine
modesty that he invites us to ask ourselves about our deleterious stupidity.
If ever mystical forces remain, these dwell in our DNA and in our structural sameness with our
environment and the beings inhabiting it.
Doudoudidon’s iconography features an obsessive reminiscence of what we may have
been – be it in our legends only – but above all, of what we must remember we are, lest we risk losing our substance to cyber avatars.
Should we see a « major » artistic contribution there? To the author, this question makes little sense and would appear baseless. One vocation of a work of art is to be a metaphoric
object – in the etymological sense of the word : when resonance occurs, it takes the viewer
towards different perceptual dimensions from where he returns with a dazzled soul and a feeling of increased sensitivity . To experience it requires no former cultural background. Art is not a lecture on art and it is enough to let the same inner voice that led our « prehistoric » ancestors to produce the first cave masterpieces speak.
