MOEBIUS/JODOROWSKY - L'incal (John Difool), plate no. 16 in - Lot 185
MOEBIUS/JODOROWSKY - L'incal (John Difool), plate no. 16 in Indian ink from the episode "Ce qui est en haut" prepublished under the title "La Stratégie des Méduses" in Métal Hurlant magazine no. 108, 1st. February 1985. It was published as an album by Editions Humanoïdes Associés in June 1985. Incredible and rare composition in two large, detailed panels for this mythical series. It presents the explosion of a planet's sacred heart. The end is experienced as a cosmic necessity, accepted without panic by the characters, calm and meditative. The heart fragments into crystals, symbolizing the release of pure energy. The theme of crystal, very present in the artist's imagination, embodies memory and the mineral sacred. The graphic contrast between chaos and mineral stability, which also reinforces the idea of rebirth, heralds the end of a cycle. In graphic terms, the fine, repeated lines create a sensation of vibrant energy. The absence of flat blacks lends a spiritual luminosity to the scene. The line translates the passage from chaos to a mineral clarity supported by crystals. This is clearly an iconic work, at the heart of the artist's metaphysical imagination, nourished by Jodorowsky. The line is clear, fluid and offers us a conceptual, meditative and free board. A masterpiece! Dimensions: 41.3 x 32.3 cm.
