About the Item

La dernière danse des tournesols - The last dance of Sunflowers In this evocative mixed-media composition, it brings to life a haunting yet tender portrayal of a solitary young woman seated on a balcony, flanked by vivid sunflowers and bathed in a melancholic Parisian atmosphere. Technique: oil, acrylic, and ink on old book pages on wooden frame 80x80 cm ■■ 31.5x31.5 inch 》》R E A D Y -- T O -- H A N G《《 ❶ → Original signed work. Certificate of authenticity included. ❷ → Protection for shipping (plywood, foam, thick cardboard) ❸ → International Delivery Company – DHL/UPS/FEDEX ➍ → Fast delivery - 3-6days from France to USA 🟢Medium and Technique It's a mixed media technique, integrating painting with collaged textual elements, creating a richly textured and multi-dimensional surface. The background architecture, including the unmistakable silhouette of the Eiffel Tower and surrounding Haussmannian facades, is rendered in sepia tones and ink, contrasted sharply against the vibrant palette used for the figure and sunflowers. Paint application varies across the canvas—from loose, gestural brushwork in the floral elements to thick, textured impasto in the girl's dress. The paint splatters and dripping pigments across the gray background suggest emotional rawness and a rejection of polished perfection—hallmarks of contemporary expressionist art. 🟢Subject and Composition🟢 At the center of the composition sits a young woman dressed in a delicate, textured white dress, her figure occupying the foreground and anchoring the viewer’s gaze. She is placed directly against a somber, grayish backdrop, with bright sunflowers rising up around her, acting as emotional and symbolic counterpoints. Her pose is slightly hunched, her expression pensive—almost sorrowful. She gazes off into the distance, her lips red, her eyes outlined in turquoise shadow and seemingly smeared with tears. Her blue-black hair cascades around her shoulders, further enhancing the sense of isolation, introspection, and suspended time. To her left, the Eiffel Tower, subtly washed in neutral tones, alludes to the setting: Paris, not as a place of romance, but as a space of quiet inner reckoning. 🟢Symbolism and Interpretation🟢 The sunflowers serve as striking visual and symbolic anchors. Traditionally symbols of warmth, vitality, and admiration, here they seem to surround and contrast the young woman’s withdrawn aura. The vibrant yellow petals glow like halos, yet the black centers create a visual echo of voids—light encircling darkness. There is a poignant interplay between interior and exterior: the young woman’s private sorrow versus the external joy typically associated with sunflowers and the “City of Light.” This dichotomy suggests a meditation on expectation versus reality, or appearance versus emotion. Furthermore, the use of printed text in the background—excerpts from literature—introduces a narrative quality. The girl becomes a character from a story, perhaps unfinished, navigating emotions that resist neat conclusions. 🟢Color Palette and Mood🟢 Use color contrast to enhance emotional effect. The girl’s pale skin and white dress are luminous against the dark background, evoking purity, vulnerability, or even ghostliness. Her flushed cheeks and red lips introduce passion or distress, while the vivid blues in her hair and the wrought-iron balcony give the composition its emotional coldness. The overall atmosphere is one of quiet emotional suspension—still, heavy, yet subtly charged. It is a painting of silent confrontation with the self, underscored by the stillness of the pose and the still life qualities of the flowers. ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ Discover my work on Channel 4 UK in the TV Show "Huges Home" with Hugh Dennis _ Episode 4 ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ Bazévian Delacapucinière is a French artist whose works have appeared in numerous exhibitions and publications in Europe, America and Asia. My work focus on oxidized images from the collective memory of the 20th century. According to Aristotle, from memory to reminiscence, it is necessary to reactivate images through the imagination to know their sensitive power. Consequently, the gaze (of portraits) becomes power, texture becomes light. Finally, this transposition of images becomes my individual memory. Exhibition: Concept store in La Baule - FRANCE
