Interpretation of the work by the artist:
This work embodies a scene from the story of Cleopatra, one of the most famous women of antiquity. It is said that to take her own life, Cleopatra allowed herself to be approached and bitten by a viper. We see very well here Cleopatra entwined with this strange creature.
La danse de Cléopâtre - Manon Côté
Her style is abstract art, she works with acrylics with large brushes, spatulas and non-formal objects to give different shapes and textures capturing the eye of the viewer.
Manon is inspired by her state of mind, trendy colors and of course music to create. She lets the rythm take over and her hands do the rest. It is always surprising to see characters or animals appearing unintentionally in her works. Sometimes the artist accentuates the outline of the character to emphasize it and to present it to you.
What she wants to transmit through her works is a feeling of well-being like that state of being when you walk in nature. We stop, we breathe, we take the time to contemplate every little thing that surrounds us. Imagine, every day when you wake up, looking at a work that brings you this feeling of well-being, freedom, lightness, softness and simplicity of being.
