Light in the Dark / La lumière dans l'obscurité

Heavily shaped by the harsh, extremely short winter days in Iceland, « Light in the Dark » series is a profound meditation on internal and environmental resilience. In this body of work, black is not the absence of color - it is THE COLOR. Through these pieces, I explore the deep, quiet spaces of the dark, treating it not as a void, but as a powerful force of beauty and transformation. I manipulate textures and low-relief surfaces to capture and reflect the ambient light around them. By using my special mixed media technique the canvas becomes a tactile landscape that shifts and changes depending on how the light strikes it.  Whether I am executing a pure black-on-black composition, creating a stark black-and-white contrast, or introducing a small touch of vibrant color pushing through dark textures, my ultimate aim remains the same: to show how hope and radiance always find a way to pierce the darkness. This series is an invitation to find the quiet strength hidden within the shadows and to witness the inevitable emergence of light.   

Français:   Noir sur noir ; noir et blanc ; noir rehaussé de quelques touches de couleur. Dans cette série, le noir est à l'honneur ! Mon objectif est de capturer la lumière dans l'obscurité et de révéler la beauté des nuances de noir.
