On the occasion of his third exhibition at Yvon Lambert and the release of his new book published by B42, Charpin puts words at the center of his work. This book, dedicated to his practice of writing around his projects, serves as a starting point for a series of drawings in which writing itself becomes a graphic form. Words, whether isolated or repeated, become both pretext and material for drawing.

The exhibition, comprising some twenty drawings organized in series, explores the subtle relationship between language and image. In one series, each drawing features the French name of its own paper format, playing on self-reference and formal economy. In another, repeated words such as word by word or step by step create a texture that merges with the surface of the sheet, where language becomes almost tactile.
