Mathematicians in the first half of the twentieth century constructed Topology as a general theory of space. It initially emerged as an understanding of space in terms of properties of connectedness and invariance under transformation. Within a few years of its inception, psychologists, psychoanalysts, architects, artists, scientists and philosophers had started to use the conceptual language of relationships, intensities and transformations of this new theory outside its original field of mathematics. Limit, boundary, interior, exterior, neighborhood, disconnection and cut were central notions that became ways of describing the fields of forces experienced by individuals. Static ideas of space as a container were replaced by understandings of movement-space, of multiplicity, differentiation and exclusive inclusion that in turn have led to new ideas of power, subjectivity, and creativity.
Topological theory has thus come to serve as a link in a network of disciplines: in each case the multiplicity of space and the formal analysis of its relations has proved illuminating. Few commentators have made explicit the nature of this topological grounding however, and in many ways these mathematical realities have been allowed to fade into the background. The Topology series of events renders explicit what has been lost sight of in this process by inviting contemporary intellectuals, artists and writers to discuss how they make use of topology in their thinking, writing and making.
Curated by Bernard Burgoyne, Marko Daniel, Julian Henriques, Celia Lury, Jean Matthee, Brian Rotman and Fredrik Shetelig.

Sylvie Pic : “Des espaces qualitatifs”
« Depuis 1989, je travaille sur des “modèles d'espaces”. Je m'explique : précédemment, pendant une douzaine d'années, j'avais travaillé sur des représentations d'architecture, des vues, toujours intérieures, d'espaces architecturaux. L'être (et le spectateur qui pouvait se projeter imaginairement en eux) était DANS ces espaces, ces espaces lui préexistaient, lui étaient donnés, comme sont donnés des lieux vides, vacants (l'espace euclidien, infini, homogène, isotrope).
Dans les séries suivantes (“Tores”, “Diallèles”, “Sommations”, “The Anatomy of Melancholy”, “La Reprise”, “To bindivide”, etc ... ) l'être FAIT l'espace, l'engendre à partir de lui-même, à partir d'un “geste” initial, d'une tension, d'une direction de l'effort qui lui sont propres (poussée verticale, écartement latéral, mouvement circulaire ...)
Aucun espace, aucune étendue ne préexistent à ce “geste”. Espace et étendue naissent par lui, se déploient et s'étendent par sa répétition et son amplification. Ainsi une morphologie naît. Autrement dit, être et espace sont dans un rapport – existentiel, charnel – de définition et d'extension mutuelles. A la limite, l'être EST cette topologie particulière ».

“I have been working since 1989 on "space models". Before, I used to work on architectural representations, views, all interiors of architectural spaces. The being (and the spectator who could project imaginary into them) was IN these spaces; these pre-existing spaces that were given to him like empty, vacant places are given (Euclidian, infinite, homogeneous, isotropic).
In the series of works that followed ("Tori", "Dialleles", "Summations", "Lightening Act", "The Anatomy of Melancholy", "To Bindivide"...), the being makes the space, creates it, departing from himself, from an initial "gesture", a tension, an effort that comes from him (vertical thrust, lateral spreading, circular movement ...).
No space, no expanse was pre-existing to this "gesture". Space and expansion come into existence through it, develop and extend by its repetition ans amplification. The birth of a morphology is the result. Or : being and space are in an -existential, carnal- relationship of mutual definition and extension and in a way, the being IS this particular topology.”
