ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Can the difference be seen from the outside? This is the question that this painting tries to answer. When we live and think outside the norms, against the current of society, that we do not feel out of place anywhere, is this displayed on our face? By its title, Hors Saison evokes this period, often synonymous with holidays and tourism, outside which attendance is less. The hotels are closing, the restaurants are empty. Traveling off-season means not being like everyone else (and that's what I often do). It is also the title of a song, hence the scores (and I'll leave it to you to find its wonderful author). With the flowers plastered on the face, the difference is certainly visible but it is above all beautiful and colorful. We have to celebrate the difference, the diversity, the strange, the bizarre. Even though the woman behind it all seems, with her big sad eyes, struggling to live with this dissonance.

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.
