Colour Award - Grand BAZ’ART 2010
The universe of Jean Christophe Philippi is complex. Galaxies, spirals, Jacob’s Ladder, the Tree of Life, biblical animals that symbolise the beginning and the end, all in the same moment, in this very moment – they are only the visible imprint of his thoughts.

As if an entire mythology were rolled up inside of him. The harder he tries to unravel it, the more the secret is intensified, complicated. And yet, he keeps trying to share
