Foggy day

This work is part of a series of four large formats (120x150 cm) initially worked for my solo exhibition in Lannion (Brittany) in July 2015. By its construction in successive plans, it can evoke a landscape. Some places seem dug in the material and reveal the lower layers of paint, even the canvas itself. Others, on the contrary, are much more textured and detailed. A foam of white and blue dots scatters the entire canvas.

The technique used mixes acrylic paint and absorbent paper soaked in water. During my research since about 2008, I have explored this practice, which allows both to slow down the drying of acrylic paint and manipulate a thick way to make effects of folding.
