Technique: watercolor on paper
Exhibition available in 2 formats for outdoor use and 1 format for indoor use.
On a small surface of paper, Thomas Lesigne makes infinite touches of color dance.
The surface that welcomes them seems to be moving and luminous.
Because if, through his personal explorations in nature, through taking photographs or through writing, Thomas Lesigne could give the impression that he seeks to freeze certain moments, his work as a watercolorist does not seem to completely stop time.
The colors vibrate, become free and diffuse, reveal, conceal, suggest, and the memories that the artist materializes then shift as if into another dimension. The given time escapes us.
The images expand slowly.
In silence.
So, as in a dream, as one approaches it, the image dissolves into its different components.

• Outdoors: choose locations where people take a walk and/or where there is a lot of foot traffic: in the centre of the town, near a school, in a public garden or along a walking trail... And if possible, on flat ground!
• Indoors: reception hall, office, waiting room, dining room, meeting room - choose the best-lit space.
CAUTION: If the space where you are displaying the exhibition is slightly damp, we recommend purchasing eight simple frames of the same size (50 x 70 cm) to protect the prints.
The papers we have chosen for printing our exhibitions meet two essential criteria, among others: beautiful colour rendering and durability.
• Exhibitions intended for outdoor display are printed on high-quality 130gsm blue-backed paper.
• For exhibitions intended for indoor display, we have chosen a 550gsm semi-rigid paper to which we attach a simple hanging system. These panels can therefore be hung on a single nail or framed if they are to be displayed in a slightly damp location.
For outdoor displays, our poster formats have been chosen to best suit “election” billboards:
• Large outdoor format (84 x 119 cm) for maximum impact. With one poster per billboard, you will need eight in total.
• Small outdoor format (63 x 93 cm) so that two posters can be placed on the same billboard... meaning you only need to install four billboards.
• Indoor exhibition (50 x 70 cm): 8 prints to hang on 5 linear metres of free wall space.

“Frequent travel during my childhood fostered a geographical memory, nourished my taste for travel and helped develop my sense of observation.
The images I create come from observations of reality. Notes taken in numerous notebooks, film and Polaroid photographs provide me with the material I draw from.
