Chapelle XIV, 14 Bd de la Chapelle, 75018 Paris
with : Lucile Boiron, Ellande Jaureguiberry, Carole Mousset
“Attracted by a palette of acidulous colors - from sugared pink to azure blue - our eye skims over the soft shapes of Lucile Boiron's photographs, the softness of Carole Mousset's paintings, and the delicacy of Ellande Jaureguiberry's drawings and sculptures.
We step forward, then immediately step back as the question arises: “What the hell is this? What are we looking at?
Each of the artists reframes or details a piece of flesh, a piece of the unadorned body laid bare in its simplest form. There's something here that disturbs or repels, that stirs our habit of not confronting our finitude or our belief in a state of purity head-on.
Our bodies are not smooth; they become damaged, weakened, wrinkled, folded and ravined. It lives. Disconcerting morbidity gradually gives way to curiosity. The death symbolized by the rotting fruit is matched by the élan of life embodied - each in their own way - by the works of the three artists.”
