Mission Recherche

In this exhibition, painting —and art in general— constantly weave light and shadow together. Thus, chiaroscuro (clair obscure) is more than just a painting technique from the past; it is a visual language that bridges the centuries. It constantly reinvents itself in its revelation of the darker side of humanity and the world, and it lends its tonality to an entire dimension of artistic creation as both a narrative technique and a philosophical principle. It expresses the materiality of light and the shadow areas of our subconscious, thus transforming our sense of the visible and the invisible.
