Description
Embroidered painting (patchwork of tapestry and acrylic painting) stretched on a frame and signed by the artist. "Philippe Jacq creates paintings by associating painting and patchwork, sewing which consists in associating several pieces of fabric. He stretches Eastern and Western tapestries on large frames, mostly collected during his travels. By mixing popular imagery and sometimes religious codes, Philippe Jacq questions his past on the other side of the Mediterranean, his present in France but also his place in a fragmented world with multiple influences. artist pursues the quest for buried emotions and hidden meanings ". Anne Malherbe, 2011, "Thrill", Strasbourg.
"Philippe Jacq uses embroidery as an analytical instrument aimed at destroying hierarchies" wrote Pierre Giquel in 2017 in "Irregular Geographies". "Philippe Jacq, at a distance from major fashions and obligatory variations, embodies the universal human destiny: the very question of the difficult, improbable and suffering link between nature and culture, between the symbolic and the living" writes Denis Duclos in 2012.

Presentation
"I hang popular oriental tapestries on large frames," says Philippe Jacq, "Mecca, harem, landscape, lion hunting in the desert ... And I sew pieces of popular Western tapestries on them, hunting with hounds, ballerina, old mill , christ scene ... roses ... often of classical and academic inspiration. The friction between the different motifs presents stories, scenarios like so many often humorous hypotheses. I see these paintings as a metaphor for the current state of the world (mixture of cultures, "ethnic mix", questioning of identity. "
