About The Artwork

"DEUX [Le troisième mois]" speaks of human duality. In this drawing, a cicada symbolises the complementary pairing of light and darkness. Two figures, encased in straitjackets of some kind, appear to be questioning. The upper part of "DEUX [Le troisième mois]" is an illustration of a chimera. On closer inspection, the blood-coloured figure crowned with sticks of dynamite is embodied in his own duality. Crimson sunflowers, almost dry, seek both shadow and light. This work is based on the very genesis of the 'Third Month' series. The artist based his work on repeated visits to psychiatric wards, creating a panorama of human 'mal de vivre'. Far from being heavy, this colourful series is an almost joyful exploration of the twists and turns of the human soul. This work was painted on paper using felt-tip pens diluted with water (like watercolours). The colours were then fixed with markers and coated with a matt spray varnish. The work is framed with a passe-partout.

"Everything is important, everything is beautiful, everything is sad. Where do we start if we choose to tell life and make it a work of art? Michèle Mailhot My work is eclectic, both in its form and in the use of media. In general, I work in "series". I think that one of the ways of making things interesting is through diversity: the styles as well as the techniques are varied. It can be the animal world [The Animals], societal criticism [Human Behaviour], comic strip-like drawing [Mr Doggy], crazy images as if from a dream or nightmare [Short Stories], gentle melancholy [Sky Blue] or, based on my own experience, phantasmagorical worlds in a dazzling frenzy [Viva La Vida]. I am currently working on the latter series. These series are very different from each other. What interests me are the variations in energy that they imply for me. So I go from one thing to another like one goes through experiences. This is often what happens in art in general and in life in particular.
