Description
This captivating work presents a young woman from behind, wearing a loose white t-shirt and worn jeans, bringing a touch of realism and authenticity. The meticulous details of the garment's folds and the texture of the jeans demonstrate remarkable technical mastery. The dark and light colors contrast beautifully, emphasizing the feminine silhouette. In the background, artistic writing adds a poetic dimension, offering a dialogue between text and image. The play of light accentuates the movements suggested by the woman's posture, creating a dynamic and mysterious atmosphere. What truly distinguishes this work is the balance between realism and abstraction, inviting the viewer to question the story and emotions hidden within this intriguing scene.
Presentation
Born in 1971, the French artist, Cécile Desserle has been immersed in the artistic environment since her childhood and grew up in her father's ceramic studio. She studied Fine Arts in Avignon, her hometown and in 1996 she did a visual arts training at the Sorbonne. At the end of her training, she became a visual arts professor, and still teaches today.
In her work, she has several inspirations, like Ernest Pignon Ernest and Jacques Villeglé for street art. According to her, technique is the most important and it has to be perfect. In order to obtain this perfection, the artist uses a plurality of techniques: oil, acrylic, charcoal and collage. This demanding nature still leaves room for imagination and she highlights sensual and lively women. Indeed femininity is Desserle's obsession, she tries to sublimate this in each of her pieces, through movement, expressions, gestures. At times her femininity is light but at times committed.
She exhibited in a gallery in 2003, for the first time. Her recognition increased gradually, but the artist doesn't rest on her laurels and evolves her style regularly, by escaping the trap of expectations. The strength of her work also seduced the movie director, Abdellatif Kéchiche as he used Cecile Desserle's work in his movie « La vie d'Adèle », Palme d'or during the Cannes festival in 2013.
