Presentation
Cécile Duchêne-Malissin is a resolutely figurative painter: her canvases depict isolated characters, borrowed from a certain melancholy, seemingly immersed in deep introspection. The world of childhood is particularly represented, and offers itself to the dreamlike sensibility of each one, causing a certain nostalgia.
Her painting can not be labeled as it is unique: by themes, composition, but also technique, mixing acrylic paint, ink, paper and canvas. The characters of the canvases unfold as much as they hide: behind masks, vegetation. They present themselves to the spectator, abandoned to the gaze, and yet all in restraint. But is it the spectator who observes the character, or the opposite?
