> SOPHIE VALETTE

Sophie Valette knows how to stray us into a world of her own : a world where subtlety and pragmatism pull us toward her painting with strength and desire. A chromatic Avray where grey rules but where the revelation of a single detail of colour can build and expand the painting. An abstract universe, with no formal behaviour, but where the reckoning of shapes is enhanced or replaced by our senses. An air-like light drawing that is nevertheless strongly precise and decided, straight to the paint. With a magic delicatessen, Sophie Valette draws as closer to her, holding us with a strength that breaks free the gates to an imaginary world where everything is banded together through delightful grace and evidence.
