Description
In this masterful work, we are immediately captivated by the brilliant vitality of the bold colors and vibrant strokes that make up this painting. The artist, through an undeniable mastery of abstraction, transports us into a universe where nature blends with the imaginary, creating a striking harmony between the real and the intangible. The painting is dominated by tones of green, yellow and red, which seem to intertwine and dance on the canvas, evoking a bubbling floral explosion. At the center of this dynamic composition, dark and imposing shapes, probably sunflowers, stand out, contrasting superbly with the surrounding bursts of light. These giant flowers, although sometimes indistinct, are rendered with an energy and passion that is palpable in each vigorous brushstroke. The background, with its subtly mixed hues of blue and white, seems to evoke a misty sky or a rough sea, adding an additional dimension to the work. Every detail is imbued with an almost tactile intensity, as the rich textures and fascinating impastos invite us to explore the surface of the canvas up close. The most remarkable element of this work is undoubtedly the chaotic harmony that emanates from it. The apparent disorder of lines and colors is ingeniously orchestrated, creating a perfect balance between confusion and beauty. The artist succeeds in capturing the ephemeral and wild essence of nature, while leaving plenty of room for the viewer's personal interpretation. This composition is a true sensory immersion, an invitation to dive into the artist's creative universe and feel every emotion vibrating through the canvas. A powerful and captivating work, which will not fail to mark the mind of the one who contemplates it.
Presentation
Valérie Butters is an artist who has burst upon the art scene in Montréal, Toronto, British Columbia, Ottawa and Paris. She is fascinated by the subconscious and influenced by surrealism and expressionism. She has studied under many prominent contemporary artists such as: Jennifer Hornyak, Marilyn Rubenstein, Seymour Segel, Shirley Kats, Philip Iverson, Sophie Jodoin, and Jacques Clement. She was also inspired by the revolutionary Canadian artist, Paul-Émile Borduas.
Borduas created a very different vision of life and art with his spontaneous expressions of emotions, feelings, and sensations. While his work was considered radical at the time, Butter's work is seen as joyful explosions of colour and emotion. Her evolution and exuberant exploration of colour and composition make her still-lifes and landscapes flamboyant and exciting.
Valerie attended the Ottawa School of Art in 2001 and, in 2005, graduated from a three-year Comprehensive Arts Program at the Saidye Bronfman Centre, in Montreal, where she received art scholarships in 2003 and in 2004. Her quick evolution and exploration of colour and compositions resides in her still-lifes and landscapes. Her large formats and flamboyant style have caught the eye of art critics such as Henry Lehmann of the Montréal Gazette (11 September 2004) who described her work as “…interestingly gaudy, exuberantly messy…"
“… Valerie's work is an expression of her constant quest for freedom of expression and the passion to let her subconscious take control …" (Brett Anningson; Arabella Magazine, Spring 2015)
Valérie now resides and paints in Pemberton, British Columbia with her husband and son
