Artwork Description

Coucou

0.0 x 0.0

Lost in her head, she no longer knows why she is there. Tormented, locked up, she despairs of remembering. All these pills knock her out, she'll never get there, she holds her head and pulls and presses ... feel a touch against her cheeks, be alive. The rest is all soft, all blurry. What is madness? A cuckoo passing by lands on his shoulder. Everyone looks in one direction, none of us observe us, spectators. Is that madness? Cuckoo was made in an initial version in 2012, it was called "Lost", and represented only the character of the woman. In 2019, I wanted to give it more substance and depth, and to provide a scenario that would light up the scene. The drama is put into perspective with this cuckoo on the shoulder, a reference to this magnificent film "Flight over a cuckoo's nest". Thus completed this painting represents the madness and the confinement of our societies, and the hope of a flight of thought towards freedom.
