Through this series, veronique egloff has wished to bow to some specific plants. Resistant plants which can grow in the midst of solar hell. Without water, except those able to draw thanks to a deep rooting. Frugal plants able to save substantial energy, those able to capture the tiny humidity of summer nights to survive. Véronique Egloff has named them "tough plants" and put them into the spotlight, because they compel her admiration. She just watched them around her house and chose 6 of them for their refined look. she could have chosen many others. They have the characteristic of being often seen as banal or even undesirable. Their insignificance despite their frenzied presence touched her precisely. She changed her creative medium to use PVC (it's not an eco-friendly material but it is recoverable and recyclable) and then it was the perfect material for further works. She sprayed all kinds of acrylic colors, it dried as soil under sun, then she scraped, etched, removed and dissolved the various layers to reveal her subject in a certain harmony. Work presented as a kakemono, but possibility of an american box frame on request.

French artist, born 1962 in Paris, located in Brittany (France). For me everything is a plea to hijacking, turning round, reversal. Regardless at the medium, only the idea is important. The solution will be found through the most appropriate tone and means I do not refuse anything. Why should I? I hate settling. My path always leads me elsewhere anyway. The Eternity must be an actor in my art obviously. Otherwise my art would not be art . I hope that this path will attract the observer and invite him to enter an explanation. As my work goes on I am learning to adapt to my inner visions, let us say unreal rather than real, without resistance. If I was given life, so I was also given the means to understand how the top and the bottom articulate together. From this outlook is born the idea that art is a refreshing and dynamic force, containing vital ingredients. I hope to harmonise the diverse ingredients of art in the melting-pot of my painting, deeply hoping that it will be a modest sample of the "Melting-Pot of Life". To do this, I get and use posters and communication tools of our consumer society. From these materials, the starting point of my reflection is an advertising slogan or an image printed on the original, I carefully keep it and generate another campaign of awareness about a dramatic situation. This is perhaps an image of hope if we notice it.
