About The Artwork
This A5-format drawing is about meandering and its consequences. Like the hero of Franz Kafka's "Trial", Patrick Gourgouillat imagines a monstrous grey beast hovering over a frightened man. This polyform being, half insect, half man, works entirely at its task: to insidiously terrorise the human soul. Like a single cloud in a blue sky, the threat is very real. The consequences? Under the man's cloak lie torments and torments bordering on madness. This work is based on the very genesis of the 'Third Month' series. The artist based his work on visits to psychiatric wards to create 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. The drawing is then covered with spray varnish.

"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.
