" I let myself be guided by what I hear, by what I perceive.
I'm staying tuned.
I observe.
I wonder about the weather.
Climate change concerns me.
Time can also be a matter of mood or inner state.
It is time to open our eyes and reflect on our lifestyles.
It is time to invent new forms of relationships with non-humans.
It is time to build a more vibrant world now."
Hélène Duclos's work draws on a vocabulary of recurring forms to construct mysterious universes.
His works seem to depict characters - men, women, animals, sometimes all three at once - in landscapes that evoke ancestral creation myths.
The drawings and paintings invite us to imagine new stories resonating with pagan rituals and votive festivals, as well as with the folklore of our contemporary world.
• 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.
