Description
Back from summer, I still wanted to capture my joy in the clear water, the well-being the sun brings, the carefree side of life in the garden and on the beach with family and friends.
To preserve this lightness, I chose to render this feeling in watercolour-like acrylic — a choice that can be seen in every inch of the canvas.
Here, no form imposes itself: everything is coloured mist, a cloud of diluted pigments melting into one another without ever hardening into an outline.
The upper right part of the canvas breathes a limpid, almost liquid blue, evoking both the summer sky and the clear water that inspired me.
Lower left, a warm glow of sun yellow, orange and violet brings warmth to the composition, like a garden bathed in late light.
Between the two, the colours answer one another in soft gradations, with no break or marked contrast.
Nothing is told, everything is felt: this transparent, vaporous canvas captures, better than any figurative scene, the carefree spirit of a summer shared.
Presentation
The Breton light as a loom
There are artistic lives that are built in a straight line, and then there is that of Emmanuelle Vroelant, made of bifurcations that, each time, have led her a little further. Born in 1952, she studied clinical psychology, then a 5-year trip, which leads her to Vanuatu and towards painting: on site, two decisive encounters reveal within her a vocation that will never leave her. She exhibits for the first time in 1978, on the other side of the world.
Back in Paris, she opens her first studio in 1981 and exhibits for four years in a row at the Salon d'Automne. Different exhibitions in Paris and the provinces will follow. The inauguration of a gallery in New York will lead her to China.
A period of illness then distances her from the canvas, and she becomes a psychoanalyst and Art-therapist for several years, a parenthesis that undoubtedly refines her view of creation.
The real second breath arrives in 2006, when she leaves Paris to settle in Brittany, in Roscoff. The light of the Finistère coast becomes her raw material, and she finds a creative intensity that will carry the rest of her work.
What strikes her is the frankness with which she embraces her influences without dissolving into them: Michelangelo, Vermeer, Kandinsky, Soulages. But it is Zao Wou-Ki whom she designates as her "true pictorial encounter," the one who showed her how silence and color could together inhabit the space of the canvas.
From this dialogue with the masters, a language of her own was born, "suggestive abstraction": large formats where the material — marble powder, mortar, collage, plant fibers — becomes the subject itself, carried by a demand for simplicity that is ever more radical. "Say more with less," as she likes to put it.
Today represented by the gallery Art and Heart and present on the major online art platforms, Emmanuelle Vroelant's works travel far beyond French borders: USA, Australia, Sweden, Switzerland, Germany, Greece, Italy, England, Saudi Arabia…
