En ce lieu prodigieux (In This Wondrous Place)

En ce lieu prodigieux (In This Wondrous Place) is particularly representative of the Concave & Convex collection. Large curved forms intersect and respond to one another, some finding an echo in a neighbouring form. From these relationships emerge passages and shifting planes of depth, like a territory inviting exploration.

At the heart of the composition, the red becomes an anchor, accompanied by a mauve form that echoes and reinforces its presence. Warm and cool colours, transparencies, and palette-knife marks create subtle shifts that reveal themselves as the eye moves through the work.

The artwork can be displayed in four orientations. With each change of orientation, the journey begins anew. A passage becomes a summit, an opening becomes a valley; what once seemed to draw the eye inward suddenly carries it upward. Each perspective reveals another territory to wander through.

Rather than depicting a specific place, En ce lieu prodigieux evokes the feeling of exploration itself — the desire to keep moving forward, drawn by what might be waiting just beyond the next turn.
