This selection of very recent drawings - january/february 2022 - highlights the core of Arpaïs Du Bois’ practice.
Today, the universal themes that she recurrently
handles in her work come to a strange point of being caught up by
reality and actuality. One can always feel a great involvement and
empathy in her work. The condition humaine is always subjacent. Also the
animal and botanical realm are a great source of concern and
inspiration.
The
permanent flow of works on paper that she makes day by day in booklets
and on a larger scale are comments, considerations, notes that oscillate
between sharp annotations, poetic musings or humorous deconstructions
of the smallness of our actions, systems and constructions we set up to
be able to cope with the world. With this proposal the painterly action
is in direct concord with the action of writing and the sound and power
of the words. Arpaïs Du Bois shows once again that she is in a permanent
state of communion with her surroundings, fragile and powerful at the
same time.
