We are pleased to share that Jean Boghossian was recently interviewed by La Libre in a feature titled “Mourir peut-être, vieillir jamais”, an evocative conversation that shines a compelling light on his creative world.
In this in-depth interview, Jean reflects on the central role of fire and memory in his practice, exploring how these elements shape both the fragility and resilience that define his work. He speaks about the delicate balance between chaos and harmony, and how this tension continues to drive his artistic process.
Jean also delves into the personal and historical dimensions of his art — discussing how exile, identity, remembrance, and rebirth inform his visual language. Through fire, smoke, and transformation, he reveals how destruction can be transmuted into creation, how traces become meaning, and how vulnerability can evolve into strength.
