Biography
Cécile Degouy's artistic approach is based on associations of fragments of images found in magazines, from films, or from screenshots. Through pictorial interventions in acrylic, oil, and drawing, she questions these visual elements, deciphers them and deciphers them in patterns ... Little by little a choice is made at the heart of her manipulations from which a detail or a sensation which will then provoke the evocation of a memory, echoing his memory, his personal history.
She creates formats on paper or on canvas with a lively and colorful invoice, they are the result of attempts at superimpositions, confrontations, destructurations, fragmentation operated by cutouts and collages where the fragments of images are integrated and melt.
The artist's universe is populated with faces, scenes, landscapes, shapes. Cécile Degouy plays with our perception so that a whole suggested or underlying iconography leaves room for imagination and dreams.
Its process falls within the limits of figuration or the time taken to develop a work is an essential factor in its creative process. Abandoning the immediacy inherent in the current mode of diffusion of images, painting becomes again the medium which allows the artist to control the duration of construction of a representation while feeling reactive and alive within a society in overdose of d 'images.
