AUDE MOUILLOT - TROPIQUES 93_5

This work is part of the Tropiques 93 series. This bridge connects urban constructions with nature, but also symbolically links two worlds: the tranquility of a residential area and the noise and speed of a road and commercial zone. Born in 1979, she lives and works at the edge of the world opposite a beach – Plougonvelin, Finistère Nord. A holder of a Baccalauréat in Applied Arts in 1997, she does not pursue formal artistic studies and leans toward social professions. But drawing and painting practice catches up with her, and in 2019 she decides to devote most of her time to her artistic practice. Always drawn to what people would rather not see—urban landscapes, industrial wastelands—she begins by painting series largely in acrylics. Colorful urban landscapes where nature interweaves. Recently, her artistic practice has diversified into sculpting and other 3D objects, as well as photography and sound recording. My artistic work delves into landscapes, whether shaped by human hands or left to the evolution of nature. The observation I make after various field research and encounters: the landscape is always shaped by human hand, but it is also a construction in its representation in art: the invention of perspective shapes our gaze toward the landscape. My artistic approach questions the relationship between humans and their environment. How do human technical capabilities transform a natural landscape? How does nature develop without intervention? What is our physical, intimate connection to these places? How does our gaze apprehend these spaces? My work is built in series, around geographic points identified by their GPS coordinates. Each work is a sensory reconstruction of the place, where I gather clues—colors, shapes, geometries, natural elements, sound atmospheres—to convey a global vision of these landscapes and the atmosphere felt on site. I employ various techniques, materials, and textures for this: paintings, drawings, sculpting, photographs, screen printing, and watercolors. "The situational visuals are AI visualizations based on photographs of the real object. The photographs of the real object govern." Canvas sent rolled in a tube, without a frame.
