Description
Frame: wood or black (collector's choice)
Work signed lower right – Certificate of authenticity provided
In Bibliothèque Sepia, Sophie Dumont continues her exploration of the book as the architecture of memory.
The volumes stand on three levels, arranged in a harmony of warm hues - ochre, pink, brown, blue-grey - which give the whole a depth that is both calm and vibrant.
The material, worked in oil with a knife, reveals the relief of the edges and the silent presence of the books.
Each colored band becomes a sign, a trace of thought, an echo of accumulated knowledge.
Between geometric rigor and pictorial emotion, this work embodies the meditative serenity that characterizes Sophie Dumont's library series.
Framed in your choice of a black or natural American box, this original work is signed and delivered with a certificate of authenticity.
Presentation
Born in 1964 in Suresnes, near Paris, Sophie Dumont lives and works in Langrune-sur-Mer, in Normandy. Self-taught, she began to paint in 1991 and develops research focused on matter, color, and the construction of space.
Her work unfolds in several series: libraries, abstract landscapes, studios, and geometric compositions gathered under the title Interior Architectures. These ensembles explore the relationships between memory, structure, and human presence. Books become rhythms and volumes; landscapes transform into expanses of color; studios retain the signs of activity and passage. In her geometric compositions, curves and rectangles organize a space where forms can evoke an architecture, an instrument, or a silhouette without fixing themselves in a single representation.
Sophie Dumont works mainly with oil on canvas, palette knife, and brush. The painting is built slowly, through successive layers, superimpositions, scrapes, and erasures. Earlier states remain perceptible and contribute to the depth of the work. The geometry of the compositions thus dialogues with a surface marked by gesture and time.
From one series to the next, her approach maintains this same tension between construction and matter, between what appears and what remains hidden. Her works are shown in France and internationally and are featured in private collections around the world.
