ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Landscapes Here and Elsewhere : very refined , close to abstraction in very muted tones thanks to the walnut product . I work recently with walnut product used by cabinetmakers . Along my researchs, I discovered how the walnut is rich of chromatic effects, made of serendipity I obviously take part . The walnutproduct worked with acrylic allows me to get very deaf and deep tones. These landscapes are out of my imagination but are strongly inspired by my adopted country of Provence. It includes themes dear to Cézanne, Mont Sainte Victoire, the pines, the sea ...

Former student of the Ecole Supérieure d'Arts Appliqués Duperré (Paris), textile designer, Helene Lamoureux has been painting for over 25 years, under her artist name RIME. It is said that the figurative represents certains realities and abstracts of intentions. Enthralled by the colorful tints of the artist ROTHKO, my approach to painting is to define my statements with colors, applied with large brush strokes and to search for new materials. I use acrylic like oil, applied generously, constantly looking for new chromatic effects. To this base, I add various materials, like oil pastels, chalks, inks, pigments, smoothed Chinese rice paper, gold leaf, as well as natural elements like grass, sand, and gypsum... I stretch my own canvas, sometimes with linseed oil revealing the thread bare on frames with atypical shapes for original compositions, in diptych, or even triptych format. At first glance, one would qualify my paintings as figurative, its true, but when they represent a Medina, a Buddha, or the St. Victoire mountain, with highly stylized forms, I bring my own print and perception of a world or a culture , that at first isn't very familiar and that I try to tame with the tip of my brush. I found this reality during my 10 years abroad, in Malaysia, Morocco and Italy and now in my adopted region of Provence, France. I immerse myself in a new environment, new landscapes, and assimilate a new vocabulary of shapes, colors, smells, different atmospheres and distant horizons to recreate "my world," a harmonious world, full of spirituality and peace in which the viewer is invited to return gradually to receive with his own sensibility, his own felt. HANDS : 2015 is a new theme that differs completely from my landscapes subjects, as much as the medium, as the colors and the subject. Here there are no effect other than the acrylic applied generously with a large brush to a base of walnut stain, a partiality for grays created with only primary colors and white and of course, the hands, of which I tried to translate the expression. LANDSCAPES HERE AND ELSEWHERE: from 21012. Very stripped down, close to abstraction in very muted tones with walnut stain used by cabinetmakers. As my research progressed, I discovered how walnut stain is rich in chromatic effects, a lucky happenstance of which I took advantage. The walnut product when worked with acrylic allows me to obtain muted and deep tones.
