About the Item

Mixed Media (oil color, pigments, gold leaf, sand, lava) on canvas and wood Signature at the bottom right Murielle Argoud is a French artist born in 1954 who lives and works in Morges, Switzerland. From her earliest childhood, she began to paint, almost frantically, and then to write, a fascination that has stayed with her over the years. After several years abroad, then sixteen years in Basel, Switzerland, she settled on the shores of Lake Geneva with her family, although she always felt she was just passing through. Her eternal thirst for openness always pushes her towards "elsewhere", on the lookout for inspiration. In Europe, Murielle Argoud has some fifty solo exhibitions to her credit, an altar painting for a chapel, numerous works in private collections and public institutions. She has also taken part in several international art fairs, including two times at the Art Biennale in Venice as part of the ECC, European Cultural Center at Palazzo Bembo.

    By Benjamin Dray

    SOLARIS 40" x 60", $13,000 About the Series: For Dray, Philosophy deals in the abstract and abstraction is an indispensable tool in art and culture. Through his paintings, he reasserts that abstraction has been a part of humanity, all cultures in all ages. It’s an indispensable tool, as we create symbols, vessels to fill with allusions and messages. The resulting artwork have a strong sense of purpose. Each painting contains hundreds of hand coloured trapezoid shapes, hand drawn with a sharp blade onto silver or gold leaf. Each coloured shape can be interpreted to represent an ‘atomic’ element. On its own a block of colour is insignificant but seen as part of a whole it becomes dynamic and alive reflecting on how nature works. The phenomena of light is also important to the work. The light of the sun in a room illuminates and reflects off the paintings as they come alive and change through time. About the Artist: Benjamin Dray is an artist based in Sydney, Australia. He completed his formal art education in Australia and has painted continuously for the last 30 years living and working in his studio home on Scotland Island...
