Untitled, Bouche, 2024
Lucile Boiron's photographs and installations recount hidden bodily states. With vivid colors and an almost tactile use of light, she confronts the viewer with the painful intimacy of living decay processes. She isolates her subjects - a woman's body, a decomposing fruit - with surgical precision. Skin is freed from its traditional functions to become a place of passage and multiple transfigurations. By adopting the artist's point of view, the viewer perceives the subjects of her photographs in those moments when boundaries blur, in a new proximity. She builds bridges between different materialities where skin blends with the physical world around them.
