About The Artwork

And collage for the dresses. Sides painted, no need for a frame. Artwork inspired by Kay Ryan's poem "FLAMINGO WATCHING" Wherever the flamingo goes, she brings a city's worth of furbelows. She seems unnatural by nature- too vivid and pecular a structure to be pretty, and flexible to the point of oddity. Perched on those legs; anything she does seems like an act. Descending on her egg or draping her head along her back she's too exact and sinuous to convince an audience she's serious. The natural elect, they think, would be less pink, less able to relax their necks, less flamboyant in general. They privatly expect that it's some poorly jointed bland grey animal with mitts for hands whom God protects. This poem speaks to sexism through the eyes of the perpetrator in the 70's. with the poet being a femenist who demonstrated for woman's rights in the 60' and 70's. and wrote the poem as a monument to the times.

Mireille Rolland, born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. After a study trip in Europe, a few years in Rome, Italy, she decides to choose France as second homeland.

To the technic inspired by Braque, she brings the unusual fineness of a geometry with softened angles mixed with the use of subtle colors. Her painting is an invitation to dream, to sensuality, a privileged moment of peace and serenity. Oil painting on canvas where the line remains as simple as possible and the festival of colors invites you to a very joyful celebration. And, as Georges Braque would say: "There is in art only one thing worthwhile; the one we can't explain....." Through the art of painting, my aim is to create in you an aesthetical emotion.. ....
