ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In this work, three figures appear in the foreground, seemingly sleeping. This is a tribute to sleep and dreams. In the distance, a she-wolf keeps watch under a bluish night. Enigmatic musicians may be playing a lullaby, but Death lurks with his strange violin. Peace, protection and... menace reign in this picture. This work is based on the very genesis of the series "The Third Month". It should be remembered that the artist based his work on visits to psychiatric wards to create a panorama of the "mal de vivre" of human beings. Far from being heavy, this series, high in colour, questions in an almost joyful way the meanderings of the human soul. This work was done with watercolour felt pens on paper. The colours were then fixed with markers. 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.
