Patricia Smith
Compulsion Drift

About the Item

watercolor, charcoal, graphite, ink on paper 19"x25" available framed Known for her idiosyncratic cartographic explorations of the psyche and mental states, Smith incorporates outer and inner geographical regions in this piece. Referencing Situationists's concepts of psychogeographical mapping Patricia Smith created works for this series which incorporate locations in Paris and other European cities that had inspired these concepts. In her wanderings (dérives) through unfamiliar places, the artist gathered impressions of physical space, the residue of history, related emotional states, synchronicities and other details to map a specific place, time and point of view. The finished works are delicate, highly detailed paintings on paper incorporating images and texts rendered in ink, pencil, watercolor, rubber stamping and collage. Patricia Smith has exhibited widely in the US and internationally, including recent exhibitions at Broadcast Gallery in Dublin, Ireland, Housatonic Museum in Bridgeport, CT, Voorkamer in Lier, Belgium, Bob Rauschenberg Gallery in Fort Meyers, FL and other venues in Paris, New York, Los Angeles and Montreal. Her work has been reviewed in numerous publications, including The New York Times, Art in America, the LA Times and L Magazine. She was awarded a residency at Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris and was artist in residence at Stichting Kaus Australis in Rotterdam.

  • Bords - Drawing, Charcoal and Pastel on paper, Landscape, Seaside
    Located in AIX-EN-PROVENCE, FR
    Drawing, Charcoal, Pastel and Graphite on archival paper. Work Title : "Bords (series)" Artist : Fabien Granet (FR) The work is signed and dated on the back. Unique work. Work Size : 20x26cm. Framed (26x33cm) with Museum Glass, Wood and archival material Born in 1970 the artist lives and works in France. The majority of his drawings and paintings are inspired by the wild landscapes of Brittany in France. " The drawing as a gesture allows me to exploit a (re)mise-en-scene as so many possibilities in the making. Through the quality of drawing as a marker of thought, it is not a question of constructing "dream worlds" but rather of setting up a device that would allow for a conscious dialogue of a certain perception of the real." Fabien Granet is pursuing a research on the perception of the landscape, on our ways of trying to represent it, to understand it, to understand its structures. The drawn "landscapes" are thus as many projections of the artist, which convene and reveal his artistic path, the influences of his culture, his utopias, his dystopian fantasies. Another shift where the quasi scientific concern of objective rigor and the mental construction of an construction of an individual course. The drawing appears in this sense as an act as much as a work which The drawing appears in this sense as an act as much as a work which is registered in a research and a quest to pierce the enigma of the real.
