Journalist Hector Lagos a passionate radio host since the 1980s, founder of the Club des Optimistes, the flagship program Vibrations Matinales positivradio.fr, and the YouTube channel Le Cercle du Phénix and the artist discuss the artist's unique and extraordinary career and life.

- HECTOR LAGOS: Hello everybody, as part of “Rising from the Ashes” in the project I am gradually putting together with the Phénix Circle, to show a little of the human side of people who are very well known today, but who at one point were not famous at all. So, I am really delighted to be in the company of the artist Jean Pierre Sergent. So hello Jean Pierre! 
- JEAN-PIERRE SERGENT: Hello dear Hector, it's such a pleasure to see you again after all these years!
- HL: Yes, well, I'm a little jealous, are we here in your workshop or actually in your personal recording studio?  
- JPS: Hahaha! It's true that over the years I've invested in photographic equipment, since I'm filming more and more interviews with friends who are anthropologists, philosophers, or art critics... And little by little, I've invested. I started investing in equipment in New York. And now I'm well equipped, so there you go...
- HL: So I'm a little jealous. But that'll stay between us. 
- JPS: Yes, yes, absolutely!
- HL: Jean-Pierre, so were you born in Morteau, in France?
- JPS: Yes. 
- HL: And you see, there's a little coincidence because we were born in the same year… As I was born in 1958 on July 14th, excuse me, in Chile!
- JPS: Ah, yes; you were born on French National Day and I was born on July 4, American Independence Day. I didn't know that before I went to live there, what a surprising and atonishing coincidence!
- HL: So you're a true Franco-New Yorker? 
- JPS: Yes, I am saying that because it sets the record straight, it's impressive. 
- HL: And did you live there for a long time? 
- JPS: Yes, of course, I lived in New York for over ten years...

A series of 119 unique silkscreen prints, most of which feature images taken from newspaper clippings that I first resized to a rectangular format with a ratio of 1/2, measuring 35 by 17.5 centimeters, then photocopied to produce positive silkscreen films, which I then silk-screened onto various types of paper: newspaper itself, 250g screen printing paper, sometimes enhanced with acrylic paint, or photocopies of press articles on acid-free paper. 

I have always had this irresistible and irrepressible need to gather and collect images, ever since I was a child. Back in the early 1990s, when I was living in Montreal and in New York, I would always buy the Sunday New York Times edition every week without fail, and I would quickly and eagerly scan through it, looking for images that would catch my eye. It didn't matter how they will atracted me, whether they provoked excitement, disgust, aversion, or simply emotion and/or desire!
