Description
This figurative composition explores the structure of an urban and maritime landscape. The gaze sweeps across a dense assembly of architectural forms and ships. The material accumulates in successive layers. The artist uses acrylic associated with pencil and ballpoint pen to define the contours.
Blue dominates the scene and evokes the depth of the waters. Touches of ochre and brown anchor the composition. Light bursts through in small yellow touches, like lanterns in the gloom. The textile and organic work of the surface creates a marked relief. Each area becomes a refuge, a cabin or a fragile shelter facing the immensity.
The technique favors accumulation and superposition. The precise line of the pen contrasts with the fluidity of the paint. The whole forms a living, almost organic architecture. The canvas captures the moment with rigorous precision. The final rendering emphasizes the tension between the solidity of the structures and the instability of the aquatic environment. The artist's signature is located in the bottom right of the frame.
Presentation
Florence Malcombe feeds on the present, with infinite precision fixes the moment. She dives into the marine abysses, loses herself in all horizons, loses herself in limitless spaces.
So she builds, assembles and structures the shelter. The shelter, the habitat, the dwelling, the cabin, the city, fragile and ephemeral. The shelters at the very top of the totems, perched like birds' nests, protected untouchable!....
But isn't man's first shelter his own body, the fleshly envelope, the skin, the first rampart against external aggression? His work reveals this body to us, in its transparency, the strength of the feeling in front of his paintings is uncompromising.
The body becomes an architecture, and its architectures come to life! Florence Malcombe's work offers a reflection on the place of man on earth.
She is a complete artist. Over several years of research, she has developed a technique that is unique to her. Her paintings are filled with natural materials that she gleans, that she steals from the sea to return them to the sea(e) with her very personal technique, powdery materials thirsty for pigments that she happily waters.
