The William Montaudié workshop-gallery, in Cahors, is hosting the exhibition of the creations of Françoise Cuxac. The opening will take place on May 6.
These are strange composite creations, dolls to the air of primitive Matriochka, colorful trophies, presented by the William Montaudié workshop in Cahors, in the Lot. From May 6 to 31, she welcomed the works of François Cuxac, visual artist who lives and works in Aurillac, in Cantal.
In his presentation, the artist writes: “I assemble all kinds of crop materials in compositions in nature, sometimes in reliquaries. My assemblies are narrative, with themes that are close to heart, maternity, hatching, death, memory … They can also be more dreamlike, everyone can project their own dreams and visions”.
-Participatory opening
She continues her detailed description of her work: “I include insects and small dried animals, I connect them to my dreamy characters, in a osmosis that pays homage to the living and to all the elements of our world.
These sculptures or bas-reliefs, are shaped with pulp, modeling paste, fabrics, on roasted structures or elements of dolls and then painted (pigments, acrylic). They are often protected and sacred under old glass globes, in wooden boxes/boxes or in old suitcases “.
The opening will take place on Tuesday, May 6 from 6 p.m. As usual, he will be participative, that is to say that everyone will bring food and drinks to share.
