Fabienne Verdier
Celestino. 2024. Colour screenprint in emerald, moss and leaf green and light blue with enamel white overlay on wove paper. Signed, dated and inscribed. 34.4 x 25.3 cm (46 x 35.5 cm). Splendid, velvety and atmospheric print with wide margins.
One of 110 copies. Fabienne Verdier thrives on the grand tachist gesture, which she knows how to combine with powerful colour modulations. In her cycle "Le chant des étoiles", created in the pandemic year 2020, she draws a comparison between the death of stars and human death: She transforms the aura of light emanating from dying stars into an image of death, representing an energy that is transmitted to the living. Each motif, carefully selected by the artist, is given a celestial name from different cultures and languages. In this way, the artist creates a cosmic portrait from the luminous aura that forms from the death of a star.
