Artist's interpretation of the work:
Monotype created spontaneously with a dried ligularia leaf. The artist was inspired by the motifs left on the plexiglass plate after printing Éphémère 3, and wanted to use these remnants for a new work. She thus obtained 3 images of the same leaf on this print. Dancing leaves, flying in the wind, falling? Depending on the inspiration of the moment.
Éphémère 4 - Hélène Routhier
She is interested in abstraction, research and experimentation, with all their surprises and errors. For her, creation is a dance with the random, where the reactions of the material to her gesture surprise her and lead to expressive works in motion.
