White and gold acrylic and charcoal painting on a linen canvas. Painter Beatrice Pontacq delivers a new series of abstract clouds.
Béatrice Pontacq is a French painter. “With Béatrice Pontacq, we are in the theory of the genesis of forms, in which the space of the work is far from playing the simple role of a container of recognizable figures (landscapes, horizon, clouds), in which the backgrounds tell less a story than they produce the place and time of a mystery. (…) In these “imaginary” landscapes in which the feeling of absence looms, the horizon effectively appears as a symbol of the distance and one beyond the visible, the edges of the painting are blurred, undefined, as for opening up the space beyond the scope of representation and placing the material in the intangible. ”
