There is, in Pauline d’Andigné’s painting, less a gradual entry into the medium than a decisive shift. Painting does not arise from an initial sense of certainty, but from a conquest shaped by an inner tension, a form of doubt that the pictorial gesture itself seeks to dispel. She expresses it without hesitation: “I am certain of nothing in life, yet, strangely, a form of clarity emerges when I construct a painting. Working intuitively eliminates the doubt that arises through reflection.”
The title of the exhibition, A Little Bit of This and a Lot of That, encapsulates this logic. The artist describes her practice as being “of the order of a mixture or a recipe.” Painting brings together heterogeneous elements to produce a harmony that is forged through adjustment, sometimes unexpected associations, and sustained tensions.
