AUDE MOUILLOT - TROPIQUES 93_4

This work is from the Tropiques 93 series.
This bridge is a link between urban constructions and nature, but also, symbolically, a link between two worlds: the tranquility of a suburban area and the noise and speed of a road and commercial zone.

Born in 1979, she lives and works at the edge of the world facing a beach – Plougonvelin, Finistère North.
Graduated with a Bac Arts Appliqués in 1997, she did not pursue artistic studies and moved toward social professions.
But the practice of drawing and painting caught up with her and in 2019, she decided to devote most of her time to her artistic practice.
Always drawn to what one does not want to see – urban landscapes, industrial wastelands – she begins by painting series mainly in acrylic. Colorful urban landscapes where nature intermingles. Recently, her artistic practice has diversified towards modeling and other 3D objects, as well as photography and sound recording.

My artistic work dives into the heart of landscapes, whether shaped by human hands or left to the evolution of nature.
The observation I make after various landscape research and site experiences: the landscape is always shaped by human hands, but it is also a construction in its representation in art: the invention of perspective models our gaze in relation to the landscape.
My artistic approach questions the relationship between humans and their environment. How do human technical abilities transform a natural landscape? How does nature develop without intervention? What is our physical, intimate link to these places? How does our gaze apprehend these spaces?
My work is built in series, around geographic points identified by their GPS coordinates. Each work is a sensory reconstruction of the place, where I gather clues – colors, shapes, geometric elements, natural elements, sound atmospheres – to convey a global vision of these landscapes and the atmosphere felt on site. I use various techniques, materials, and media for this: paintings, drawings, modeling, photography, screen printing, watercolors.
