« Hurry up to exist» by Sean Hart

Second Floor / Wall/ Aerosols / 2008

“This is the first draft of a work I created again in July 2011, in the bedroom of an old abandoned shack in a Parisian suburb, this time writing Hurry up to exist or hurry up to die in a loop running all the way around the room, thereby rendering it more visually interesting and helping it to resonate better with the actual meaning of the words.

Sean Hart

Born in France in 1981, Sean Hart has been voluntarily homeless for the past 3 years: a street artist who travels and works without authorisation – but also without concealing his name or his face – in towns throughout the world. He sees his work as a set of poetic messages encompassing various different series of work and covering a wide range of different media: painting, photography, video, sculpture, installation, performance art and short films. Each work represents fragmented pages of an intimate diary – a travel journal formulated as a cocktail of challenging poetic images.
