Presentation

Virginie Remillieux is a permanent artist who creates in her studio located in the gallery. We offer a personal exhibition of these latest works: VARIATIONS You can meet this artist at the gallery every Tuesday and Thursday and by appointment. Abstraction and figuration My pictorial work is situated in this round trip of the appearance of the figure. Over the canvases the figurative fades away, only revealing the weave of charcoal and the light of zinc white. The represented body erased by the brushing of the paint making the character transparent. What interests me is the representation of the body as an emanation, an imprint, a trace of a presence. The fall of bodies suspended in time, frozen in the canvas, or else, camouflaged in the pigment, diluted, waiting for their disappearance, almost erased but still perceptible. In the canvas is drawn a face, the silhouette of a wandering ghostly being, in search of a possible representation.

To lose, to bury in the pigment, the charcoal, the face, transfigured by the matter of the pigments, precipitated like a waterfall, in the process of becoming in a permanent mutation. Creating a pictorial work like a visual poem is the meaning of my research, inspired by certain works of the artist Bill Viola such as "Ascension". And through the work "Given 1 ° el gas lighting 2 ° the waterfall" by Marcel Duchamps, I am looking for plastic writing in the face of the shock caused by the enigmatic installation; For me, to evoke the figure and its representation in painting is to speak of the mystery, of the freedom, of the energy that was transmitted to me by looking at the works of painters such as Francis Bacon, Georges Baselitz or Gérhard Richter.
