ABOUT THE ARTWORK

No photo can pay tribute to the warmth of this canvas. No matter how much I walk it around the apartment, it remains bland in front of my mobile phone. To take full advantage of it, you will have to come and see it in person! The Passage is a painting that speaks of the "Day of the Dead", this very colorful and very festive Mexican holiday despite its macabre theme. It celebrates remembrance, memory, rather than mourning and forgetting. I chose the title of "passage" since the typical flower used in the rites is the marigold, whose symbolism is strong: it is considered as a psychopomp, that is to say that it leads the soul from the dead to the afterlife. Just like death, which is the passage from one state to another, and not an end in itself. I used in this canvas playing cards and small colored brads.

The difficult issue of identity, duality and inner conflict is at the heart of Annabelle's thinking. Whether it is the injunction made to women (on their physique, their activities or their social status) or the personal evolution in our society (where the norm is still the only model and where the difference is stifled), the question is then the same: how do we make our deep convictions coincide with the world around us? How to assert our identity without feeling judged? Can we remain ourselves, flourish, knowing that we are constantly influenced by society, the gaze of others, social networks, money or even success? Annabelle rips, cuts and glues book pages and playing cards on the canvas, which she then covers with acrylic paint. The organic skin of the women that she portrays thus gives way to images and colors that make it possible to transcribe what they feel and who they are.
