After painting on cotton, paper or wood, Lancelot Blondeel studies a new medium to paint by choosing the transparent canvas. This material choice, both technical and conceptual, opens up a field of experimentation where light, an integral part of the work, enriches the dimensions traditionally treated in paint.
The transparent canvas allows light rays to circulate; they pass through areas of colour, reflect, and diffuse. This application makes it visible the many behaviors of light and brings a dynamic All. The association of this medium with acrylic paint, whose translucency properties are exploited, generates vibrations of great presence. Ultramarine blue pigment, the keystone of the series, is thus revealed in all its strength and character.
A certain tension emerges within the composition, while the gesture that unfolds across the works is marked by spontaneity, the overall balance remains deliberate, considered, and thought through. Thus wheelbases, projections, dialogue with the background, choice of colors are studied and controlled. On the other hand, signual work, an almost instantaneous physical emanation, arises from an unconscious bodily and unconscious. This repeated gesture, perfected over the years, becomes a form of form of bodily language specific to the artist.
