This captivating artwork is distinguished by its bold use of color and texture that evokes an abstract, organic landscape. The composition is dominated by a series of amoebic forms, seamlessly merging hues of deep green, ocean blue, earthy brown, and golden ochre. These chromatic elements are juxtaposed, creating a striking contrast with the striking white bands that run across the canvas, adding a sculptural and dynamic dimension to the whole. The artist demonstrates an impeccable mastery of mixed media, using layers of paint of varying thickness to give remarkable textural depth. This approach creates a sense of movement and flow, reminiscent of natural formations such as rivers or veins in the earth when viewed from above. Each colored fragment seems to enter into conversation with its neighbor, ensuring visual continuity despite the apparent anarchy of forms. What makes this work truly unique is its ability to evoke varied emotions while allowing for personal interpretation. One can perceive an echo of wild nature, a controlled chaos where an intrinsic harmony reigns. The work encourages prolonged contemplation, each glance revealing subtle details that incite reflection and wonder.
Painter based near Chartres, Frédérique Fabri chose abstract expressionism to embody the feelings and thoughts that animate her when faced with the spectacle of the Sea, Oceans and Rivers. The smell of sea spray, the sound of waves, the murmur of water in shells and the ocean floor are her sources of inspiration. Sea, Coral, Flora and Underwater, Color, Brilliance, Gold… These words illustrate her painting.
In 1999, it was the discovery of the works of Mark Rothko, his large colored formats with moving surfaces at the Museum of Modern Art in Paris that led her towards acrylic and large formats. The fluidity of Jackson Pollock's paintings also greatly inspired her.
She tries to convey with her brush this inner universe where her wonder, her quest for harmony and appeasement in the face of the liquid elements of our planet are mixed. She mainly uses acrylic paint and inks on linen canvas, sometimes mixing other techniques, resin, graphic leaves, with essential work on colors, respecting the undulating shapes and colorful bursts of the underwater world to balance her compositions. Gold leaf is everywhere on her canvases, like a sparkling signature, a memory of the jewelry and chiseled copper from the markets of her childhood spent between Morocco and Spain.
