Description artwork

For this painting "Au revoir", Corinne Malfreyt was inspired by photos of Eadweard Muybridge, the first photographer who at the end of the 19th century decomposed the movements by inventing with Jules-Etienne Marey the photographic gun.
Eadward Muybridge photographs a young naked woman and her farewell gesture. Corinne Malfreyt has changed the order of movement, creating three female characters close to Greek graces. Do they say goodbye with their hands? Is their farewell not rather an invitation? Whatever the case, the composition is beautifully sensual.
The artist dyed sand applied to the canvas. Then she placed her composition in pastel pencil and painted with spalters (large brushes). The blue-gray of the scene becomes white until the overexposure of the third silhouette, which appears white in a halo of light.

Malfreyt Corinne France
Everything in Corinne Malfreyt-Gatel's practice is a story of energy and symbiosis. Her oil painting is composed of and marries the elements in a continually circular movement of the material, symbolic for the artist of time and the life cycle. The series of paintings "Le Sacre après Pina", a homage to dance and the famous German choreographer Pina Bausch, evokes the eternal return of things, disappearance to rebirth, completion to beginning again, through the movement of bodies. Fascinated by the theatrical and performing nature of artistic creation, Corinne Malfreyt-Gatel produces alongside her pictorial production, public acts, poem readings to music or "live" paintings, precious moments during which the notion of exchange, emotions lived together and shared crystallise.
