La composition est simple, mais la disposition des livres en plusieurs étagères crée une harmonie verticale, une sorte de dialogue silencieux entre les pages blanches. Cette simplicité dans la forme et l'exécution traduit une réflexion sur l’intemporalité de la lecture et sur l'univers que les livres peuvent ouvrir, tout en invitant à une méditation sur le vide et l’espace entre les choses.
L’utilisation du couteau de peinture donne à l’œuvre une dimension tactile, accentuant la matérialité de l’image, tout en apportant de la profondeur à l’ensemble. Les stries créées par la matière se lisent comme des empreintes, renforçant l’idée de la permanence de la connaissance et de l’histoire dans un monde en constante évolution. La lumière semble aussi jouer un rôle crucial, l'ombre et la lumière se mêlant subtilement sur les formes presque sculpturales des livres.
Enfin, Douceur des Pages se distingue par sa capacité à exprimer une émotion à travers un médium abstrait. L'œuvre ne cherche pas à raconter une histoire, mais plutôt à évoquer une sensation de calme et de sérénité, comme une bibliothèque silencieuse, emplie de savoirs non dits. Elle incite à la contemplation et à l’introspection, faisant de chaque regard un moment d’évasion.
Related themes
Sophie Dumont is a contemporary French painter. Her landscapes evolves in modulations with blurred contours, to suggest volumes more than to draw a precise motif. The palette, in often more muted tones, suggests more than it imposes a resembling construction. The freedom of the artist s that of the spectator, invited, whatever the theme, to enter the canvas to bring his interpretation and let himself be invaded by his own emotions. The multiple layers of matter patiently elaborate the transparencies from which the lights emerge.
Certain paintings can evoke the influence of Nicolas de Staël by their graphic simplicity, and tend by their fluidity, towards a lyrical abstraction which erases the visible appearances of reality. The variations of black, gray and white, for example, concentrate all the energy contained in nature, in a play of perspectives and lights where the line fades to the benefit of the general atmosphere of the canvas. But at the same time the style follows a continuous evolution which will be expressed later in a series on libraries, where the book appears more as an evocation of a culture than as an everyday object.
Sophie Dumont was born in 1964, in Paris. Her works have been featured in solo and group exhibitions nationally.
