Sometimes accompanying an artist means knowing when to leave him alone. This was the case with David Shrigley, who is known for his caustic drawings. In preparation for his visit, I set up seven litho stones on the print shop tables, but quickly realized he had no clear idea of what he wanted to draw; he was waiting for inspiration to strike. His method, demonstrated well that day: boredom. Timid and reserved, he spent about two hours wandering around the shop, sitting in the corner or yawning… and all of a sudden, he made seven drawings.

Parfois, accompagner un artiste veut dire savoir le laisser seul. C’était le cas avec le dessinateur caustique David Shrigley. Pour préparer sa visite, j’ai installé sept pierres sur nos tables, mais on a rapidement compris qu’il n’avait pas d’idées préconçues ; il attendait que ça vienne. Sa méthode, bien démontrée ce jour-là : l’ennui. De nature timide et réticente, il tournicotait autour de nous, restait dans un coin, bâillait pendant deux heures. Et d’un seul coup, il a terminé sept dessins.
