Abstract
Anne Neukamp will show how her paintings emerge from a process of elaboration of a multitude of strata and references where perception constantly oscillates between abstraction and figuration, between material facture and spatial imagination: autonomous compositions of shapes and colors where distinctive signs fold over each other while claiming each other. It's as if they're trying to colonize each other, and gradually aspire to do away with their original meanings. She will show how, in designing her paintings, she refers to the vocabulary of the world of visual communication that surrounds us: logotypes, emblems, icons, pictograms, signs... found on stickers, in magazines or on the Internet. These motifs undergo elaborate mutations to the point where their initial thematic intentions tend to unravel, allowing the elements that constitute them to activate, in the context of the image, their own visual logic. As a result, his paintings are limited to offering fragmentary references, at best semi-figurative, with the original meaning reduced to a homeopathic dose.
