PARIS // EXHIBITION: LOUISE CARA


Some twenty original works, engravings and prints by Louise Cara exhibited from 28 June to 9 July 2018. These works have been selected from her series: « Traits, Tectonic et Fil d'Ariane ». 

The singularity of her technique lies in the choice of her materials and tools. It results in the exclusive use of an intense and deep black Japanese ink and a unique pigment, slate, fixed by a natural binder. The writing of her works is made up of signs, drawn mainly with a spatula and a calligraphy brush. Louise Cara seeks to strike a balance in oppositions: black/white, full/empty, soft/hard, horizontal/vertical. As if to install graphically a harmony of contrasts.
