Review of the work “Preserved”
The work “Preserved” reveals itself to be an immersion in a universe where different pictorial techniques skillfully mix. This painting, created with mixed media, demonstrates the artist's talent for combining oil, acrylic and watercolor, creating a rich and vibrant composition.
A self-taught artist living near Toulouse, she expresses through this work her vision of a passionate inner world full of emotions. His pictorial gesture is guided by an inspiration that is sometimes abstract, sometimes figurative, thus reflecting a duality which is found in the very composition of “Preservée”. The explosions of color and soft contrasting fades create an enveloping movement, capturing the contradictions and oppositions of human nature.
The central element of the painting, which appears to be a bridge or an arch, perhaps symbolizes the passage between two worlds: the real and the imaginary, the past and the future, the exterior and the interior. This interpretation is reinforced by the presence of a spherical structure evoking a bubble or a globe, probably an allegory of the protection and preservation of emotions and memories.
The work “Preserved” is an invitation to contemplation and reflection. It transports the viewer on an introspective journey, where each brushstroke tells a story, each shade of color evokes an emotion. Françoise Dugourd -Caput succeeds here in capturing and transmitting the contradictions and contrasts that make the human experience rich.
In conclusion, “Preserved” is a masterpiece that perfectly illustrates the artist's talent for navigating different artistic techniques to create a deeply emotive and visually captivating work. This painting, with its light and vibrant colors, brings true light and joy, reflecting the passion and sensitivity of the artist.
