Artist:Brick Board Builder
Red and yellow. The two most classic colors of LEGO bricks, the colors of every toy chest, for the most serious subject of all: a skull. Yellow Skull is the counterpart to Green Skull, reversing its arrangement. The yellow, which served as the background, becomes the subject here, set against an uncompromising red.
The skull explores yellow in all its forms, from lemon to buttercup, warmed with oranges and deepened with browns around the edges. The forehead is lit with white and cream, the temples and chin turn anise green, and the cheekbones are crossed with magenta and violet. Then come the eye sockets, outlined in black and filled with blues: azure, turquoise, lavender, violet. This is the only cool area of the painting, and the eye goes straight there. Lower down, a wide row of white teeth: this skull laughs with all its bricks.
Around it, the red is a constructed monochrome. Bricks, plates, arches, and hemispheres in the same shade are piled up at different heights, studs visible, and it is the cast shadows that give it its design. Nothing hides the material: the work embraces where it comes from.
Up close, the search for details begins. In the middle of the forehead, a tile decorated with a pink and violet pattern is placed like a jewel. Small star tiles punctuate the skull, two yellow stars shine on the chin, and tiny black steering wheels slip along the edge. In the red, a chain and a vehicle chassis can be made out, drowned in tone-on-tone camouflage.
A childhood toy used to express the passage of time: contrast lies at the heart of Brick Board Builder's work. The artist builds without a plan, by hand, with second-hand LEGO® bricks collected in bulk from all over France, partly through the charitable association Rejoué, then cleaned and sorted one by one. No other hand could place these pieces in the same order: Yellow Skull cannot be recreated identically.
Neither a print nor a reproduction: a unique piece, numbered, bearing the artist's plaque and delivered with its certificate of authenticity.
