(carpet) tapis de voiture , 2007 - wool  - 300 x 200 cm - (steering wheels) volant , 2007 - leather, metal



the objects of daily life and confrontation to unique situations form the basis of lilian bourgeat’s work. 
his objects, 'hyperrealists' are much larger than in reality, thus the line between functionality and
proportion becomes very thin.  he realizes a giant tape measure on which each millimeter equals
one centimeter, plastic cups of 40 cm in height that one can drink with (a difficult task if one does not
want to spill the contents), push-pins on cork panels 36 cm in diameter, boots 3 meters in height, etc.
by blurring reference marks, lilian bourgeat distorts the perception of not only the objects themselves,
but also the space where they are installed. focusing on the ties between art and world, via the
relationship of representation and perception, he questions our comprehension of reality and disturbs
the natural process by which we understand the world around us.
