Presentation
Elisa Pône was born in Pontoise (France) and she lives and works in Lisbon (Portugal).
Disjunction is at the heart of Elisa Pône's work. When she's interested in pyrotechnics it's in order to remove it from its original context so as to focus on its ambivalent feature. Everything to do with fireworks their range and the safety perimeter, their detonations and explosions highlight the extent to which they veer between leisure and latent violence.
Elisa Pône transfers these floating blazes to make them happen in inappropriate places such as the interior of a workshop, the basement of a parking lot or just below a bridge. Spectators unusual proximity greatly increases the visual, odorous and noise impact of the firework. Then, concerned by the risk and the gratuity of both a brief and immoderate spectacle, a frustrated wonderment emerges.
