Discover the contemporary work of Brigitte BARRY
When she was little, she dreamed of being an explorer, veterinarian, archaeologist, stylist and... witch. Raw materials and elements attract her: Earth, wood, water, fire, wind, fabrics, stone, plants and the human sphere. She draws in pencil, always in black and white. Dreams fled only to respond very early in life to what they wanted. a necessity economical and family friendly.
And then it was the meeting with a man who loves colors, who loves life, who knows how to Love. Between contemplation and reading, he paints. He does not ask her to marry him but invites her in front of an easel and a white canvas, puts her in front of her. its arrangement of brushes. There are colors in his workshop… « Go ahead, let go. Play, have fun… ». Black and white or color?
Today, his works tell the story of freedom, introspection, meditative moments, the fire that animates him, the beauty of life. vibrant and magnetic of life.
Work at home acrylic. Sometimes far from representations of reality, or away from reality. barely suggested, she positions itself rather in the field of semi-abstract art, using to the desire for fluid art techniques.
Self-taught and instinctive painter, she lets the material speak. She draws on the source of emptiness and fullness.
It thus invites the viewer towards unsuspected spaces, a painting that is intended to be interactive, lively.
What animates it is the vibratory, cellular world.
Allowing her emotions, the brush stroke or the knife to speak, she dares to hope that her painting testifies to a colorful energy, inviting the viewer to take a walk or to explore. question yourself...IN COMPLETE FREEDOM.
The transformative power of art and spirituality, are fields that I have been experimenting with for many years.
It’s a path from where’ we don't go back, where the more we get lost, play and experiment, the more light comes.
Painting is for me a mise en abyss whereù I let the matter speak.
The abyss, impermanence …
I draw from the source of emptiness and fullness. Between the two: other possible ones: mine, yours.
The transformation path is full of surprises!
