Galerie Durst has asked each artist to reveal a little of their creativity in this "Page Blanche" section, on the subject of their choice, and in the medium of their choice.
This is Catherine Cazau's blank page:
Writing table
Non-representative images
Mysterious spaces made of smooth surfaces
Or striations, superimpositions, lines,
Of signs and informal masses.
Experiment
Mixing materials with each other
Search
Redo what I do, what I know how to do.
Start again
Dare, risk.
Once the canvas is dry, look
Watching these mysterious transformations
Transmutation. Alchemy
Search for random designs
Prints, writings, often black.
Almost hide, to show
Covering to reveal something else
Burials
Burying what has been said, but not quite
Masking, but not everything
Let it show, let it show
See a bit
Give us a glimpse of the underside,
From the bottom of the story
And draw clumsy lines,
Incise the canvas, engrave,
In the flesh, perhaps.
