Laure CARRE - Lot 25
Laure CARRE Tied hands, 2023 Fat chalk on paper Original work 30 x 36 cm Laure Carré's painting comes from within. From the belly, to be precise. In other words, from the seat of the soul, reflecting its states. You have to keep this in mind when you look at her small and large formats, populated by dogs and wild horses, cowboys and unisex boxers, high mountains and low skies. Here, nature and its species rest in peace, echoes of landscapes and creatures encountered in dreams or in real life, in American parks, the Lofoten Islands, Brittany or Tenerife. Dreams are also journeys, and Laure Carré gives equal importance to morning thoughts and distant memories. Passed through the sieve of memory, images emerge in bits and pieces in oil, acrylic, ink or chalk, on canvas or tracing paper, escaping from a compound past whose traces are visible. In her Nantes studio, which once housed former stables, Laure Carré sands, scrapes, tears and conducts investigations, sometimes reopened after months of waiting. Her bold style is reminiscent of Georg Baselitz, and her body fragments - mainly hands - of Egon Schiele. Each painting, each collage is an unsolved mystery. Between sleep and death, earth and beyond, ghosts pass in transit, harmless and free. We would like to thank the Galerie "Amelie Maison d'Art" for its participation in this sale.
