About the work “Empyrée”
The painting immediately captures attention with its dynamism. Perfectly reflecting the artist's bold and lyrical approach, this abstract painting is a visual exploration of light, color and texture.
The canvas is dominated by warm shades of orange and yellow, contrasted by shades of blue and green which bring a balancing freshness. The colors mix and blend into each other, creating an effect of fluid movement and depth. The denser, textured areas of color, notably the orange and blue portions, add a tactile dimension that invites the viewer to approach and explore the surface details.
Paint streaks and vertical splashes add additional dynamics, suggesting both gravity and ascension. This duality creates a captivating tension in the composition, as if the painting is oscillating between heaviness and lightness. The use of these elements recalls the surrealist influences that the artist integrates into his lyrical abstraction, while retaining a poetry of reality which anchors the work in a certain form of visual narration.
The canvas evokes a celestial or ethereal space, a visual interpretation of the concept of empyrean which, in mythology, is the highest part of the sky, reserved for deities. The painting captures this idea of elevation and transcendence, inviting the viewer to contemplate the infinite and the unexplained.
Françoise Dugourd-Caput, with her self-taught training enriched by experiences at the École des Beaux-Arts, demonstrates here her technical mastery and her ability to innovate in her compositions. The use of oil, with its infinite possibilities of texture and depth, allows the artist to create a rich and complex work that rewards the attentive viewer.
