Danielle Vidal-Ausseil

In my process as an artist, I try to create poetic abstract images, inspired by Nature as my Muse, with a strong tendency towards minimalism.
One can see a wide landscape with a low horizon, or an empty place, with trunks reaching into the space, trees between the rocks, silhouettes in the movement, shadows in the space, shadows in the sky. Together, it’s both chaos and harmony, noise and silence, earthly and ethereal, full and empty, fragile and powerful.

It is a form of handwriting, in which the strokes and rhythm of the brush convey an important statement.

It’s comparable to a musical score. Just like a musician, artists have to organise the chaotic movement and capture the dynamic balance. Instead of musical instruments, they use pencils, brushes, pens, crayons, and so on…
My art could be described as a poetic visualisation of the sound of music.

In this way, my work is an attempt at abstraction.  Text : Danielle Vidal-Ausseil.   Translation : Neven Curlin.
