Mixed-Media Nautical Collage by French Artist France Cami

An abstraction is a powerful tool that allows artists to question reality, challenge our understanding of the world, and expand our horizons beyond what we can see and touch. In this square format piece combining collage and painting, the artist - a romantic visual poet - is aware that all design is inspired by the Natural that gives life to thoughts in a way that is open to interpretation and subjective experience.

Through a process of cutting, layering, and highlighting, the artist imbues the materials and colors with deeper meaning. At the bottom, a grounded and strong base is strengthened by dark colors and the absence of forms and details. This technique of creating a sense of energy and motion within an otherwise static composition is fully mastered in this artwork.
