  • Acrylic and paper on canvas - 120 x 150 cm - 2015

Foggy day

This work is part of a series of four large formats (120x150 cm) initially worked for the solo exhibition of Arnaud Gautron in Lannion (Brittany) in July 2015. By its construction in successive plans, it can evoke a landscape. Some places seem dug in the material and reveal the lower layers of paint, even the canvas itself. Others, on the contrary, are much more textured and detailed. A foam of white and blue dots scatters the entire canvas.

The technique used mixes acrylic paint and absorbent paper soaked in water. During his research since about 2008, the painter has explored this practice, which allows both to slow down the drying of acrylic paint and manipulate a thick way to make effects of folding.
