ArTchipel: 9 female artists, Paris exhibition


 

Nine women artists from the ArTchipel collective are exhibiting their artworks in the Paris town hall of the 6th arrondissement from 14 December 2024 to 13 January 2025. The exhibition includes paintings and sculptures.

 

The themes for the collective exhibition are: eight islands, eight planets, eight universes – to ”affirm the parallel worlds, underground or celestial, which beat, sing and only ask for our listening to make a symphony.”

 

The 9 female artists are: Cyb, Maÿlis de Chambure, Ange Debroise, Tat Duvillier, Marie-Astrid Grivet, Emilie Riggs, Claire Sevaux, Alessandra Solima, and Catherine Webb.

 

Cyb calls her pictorial approach "Insurrection of Colour" and says, "Colour is what pushes the limit, what finds space and convulses time." Maÿlis de Chambure’s creations suggest escape, inviting the viewer to “wander and get lost in the twists and turns of interpretation.” Ange Debroise says, “At the beginning, there is the eye that tracks and absorbs the world. Then comes the need to transcribe, to keep a trace of what has been seen.” Tat Duvillier’s paintings are joyful – “like a mason,” she says “she mixes matter and colours, and covers them to discover ...”

 

Marie-Astrid Grivet would like her paintings to lead the observer to escape, calmly, by looking at each part of the painting in a unified way. Emilie Riggs gives trees central place in her collection “Crossing the Shadows.” Claire Sevaux says she captures scenes taken on the spot with the intention of transmitting psychological moments and emotion. Alessandra Solima says the subject of her paintings, “if one appears, is often random and accidental,” as it imposes itself on her and dictates a path to her. Catherine Webb says her artworks “combine structural plans and volumes in a harmonious search for architectural strength.”

The acacia thorn trees of Kenya

The famous "whistling thorn tree" and the Umbrella Thorn tree of Kenya are species of acacia that do have thorns, or spines. Giraffes and other herbivores normally eat thorny acacia foliage, but leave the whistling thorn alone. Usually spines are no deterrent to giraffes.
