Artwork location: France

The painting presented is a captivating work that captures the essence of introspection and mysticism through a bold and evocative composition. The central scene highlights two stylized human figures, emphasizing clean contours and contemplative poses. The predominant use of red, pink and green hues underlines a serene yet dynamic atmosphere, while the black strokes provide a striking contrast and define the forms with confidence. The most captivating element of this work lies in the intertwining of the human figures with foliage motifs. These naturalistic elements, executed with remarkable fluidity, seem to evoke a harmonious fusion between man and nature, perhaps symbolizing a quest for balance and spiritual connectedness. The background of the painting, far from being a simple passive surface, is animated by undulating lines and curves that give the whole an almost energetic dynamic. The perched bird adds a dimension of freedom and elevation, prompting the viewer to reflect on the duality of the human soul, torn between earth and sky, contemplation and action. This work is distinguished by its distinctive style and its ability to provoke deep reflection in the viewer. The chromatic choices and harmonious compositions demonstrate technical mastery and a unique artistic vision. Each element contributes to a subtly orchestrated visual narrative, inviting total immersion in a universe where the intimate and the sacred meet and respond to each other.

Claire Bonnet-Masimbert, Le lézard

Presentation

Claire Bonnet-Masimbert paints or sculpts contours evoking the sentient beings that we are. The body, stripped of its particularities, becomes original and becomes a receptacle.

The expression “take shape" finds its full meaning here.

What takes shape are the movements of the being, what animates it: its emotions. Those of the artist in the creative moment and those of the viewer who, prompted by this beginning, ends the story by projecting his own sensitivity.

Claire paints as she writes: each body is a word which meets another in a play of interlacing. The viewer can thus observe the dialogue that takes place between them. The narration appears. This pictorial writing makes the line no longer an element allowing the movement of a body to be represented, but punctuating a surface like punctuation. This results in a form of musicality.

The artist goes to encounter what she does not know or master. A danger which is characterized in particular by the offbeat use of certain supports or by the fragile, elusive handling of ink, a recurring fluid in his work. A posture which requires him to be in a spontaneous restitution of his state, a posture which is both challenging and driving.

The visual artist likes raw textures; whether in painting or sculpture. In addition to the breathing space offered by the passage from one medium to another, it above all allows him to find answers; the practice of one nourishing the practice of the other. This is why presented together, an exchange inevitably takes place.

In this pictorial exchange, Claire asks herself the question of the place of the Other and it is quite naturally that she turned towards proposals for collaboration, opening up a wider field of dialogue.
