Description
"My Head When I Look at the Shore" is an unexpected self-portrait, born from a visceral confrontation with the reality of marine pollution. The work comes to life from an unconventional material: remnants of ship paint and antifouling, pigments charged with the history of maritime voyages and, paradoxically, their environmental impact. These raw materials, recovered and transformed, serve as the foundation for a profound reflection, then redefined and refined through oil paint.
This creation is a poignant exploration of our relationship with the ocean. It questions the omnipresent presence of waste that impacts the sea, not only as silent witnesses to our passage, but also as mirrors of our collective actions. The work invites introspection on our actions as humans, highlighting the dichotomy between our dependence on the sea and the often destructive consequences of our behavior.
Beyond simple observation, "My Head When I Look at the Shore" expresses a palpable disgust at incivility. It reflects a frustration, a powerlessness felt in the face of the degradation of what should be preserved. The self-portrait, in spite of itself, thus becomes the face of this environmental consciousness, distorted by anguish and dismay, but also driven by a burning desire to raise awareness.
By combining the ruggedness of recycled materials with the subtlety of oil paint, this work creates a visual tension that embodies the paradox of our times: the fragile beauty of nature versus the indelible imprint of human activity. "My Head When I Look at the Shore" is not just a representation; it is a cry, a challenge, a work that urges us to look beyond the horizon to perceive the storm brewing within and around us.
Presentation
Born on December 05, 1974 in ORAN. Stéphanie NAVARRO comes from a Spanish family.
She grew up in the middle of the boats, with the Mediterranean as her only anchor.
Stéphanie found herself in 1985 in Toulon where her parents settled. She already has, from the height of her ten years, passions for writing, drawing and music.
At college Stéphanie spends her free time reproducing fashion models on paper, with brush and Indian ink. Faced with a plastic art assignment on the theme of Gustav Klimt, and lacking paint to accomplish her work, she escapes conventions and empties the make-up drawer of the women in her family. The blushers, eyeshadows, foundations, lipsticks, nail polishes and other vagabonds from the magic drawer, materials that later will allow him to create works with warm hues creating atmospheres close to the earth and human.
In parallel with her professional career, Stéphanie developed her passion for theatre, audiovisual and writing; she directs the association La Météorite with which she writes and directs.
In 2010, travels and meetings at the other end of the world brought her to tears. Talking about people, their lives, their struggles, their hearts, in the end, that's living. The image of bereaved women makes her take up Indian ink again and pay homage to the Warriors of the present time.
Today, her creations evolve to the rhythm of the values she defends, season after season, colorfully.
Based in southern Corsica, she signs her works Tani Telas.
