ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Patrick Gourgouillat was inspired by Gustav Klimt to create this work. The title refers to the song "Let's Dance" by David Bowie. Resolutely urban, "And Dance The Blues" depicts hip hop dancers with disproportionate and deformed bodies, visibly swaying to a frenzied rhythm. Dressed in similar jeans and shoes, the figures seem free as a bird, unrestrained... But a QR code breaks the magic. More and more widespread, it reminds us that we are dependent on the digital world. It is able to identify our choices, our tracking, our consumption, and so on.... This is also the theme of the famous David Bowie song. And dance your blues...

"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.
