L’Écorce de la montagne

Élodie Marandon’s paintings depict delicate yet unsettling dreamlike visions. By playing with the ambivalence of her subjects, she seeks to convey emotions ranging from fear to tranquility.

The inspiration for her work comes from landscapes and natural elements. She draws on various images captured during her travels and visits, which she assembles to create a personal and introspective world. Mythology and folktales, German Romanticism, and Asian painting have also influenced her work.

Her use of gouache and watercolor on paper allows her to create meticulous paintings that require a long process of development and work, especially for the larger formats.

The exhibition will be on view from September 1 through 29, and the opening reception will take place on Thursday, September 1, starting at 7:00 p.m.
