Lovers in Paris by Myriam Feuilloley

In "Amoureux à Paris," Myriam Feuilloley captures a moment of suspended tenderness, where two souls meet above the rooftops of Paris. The characters, naked and bald, are stripped of all social belonging, transcending the barriers of the material world to reach a deeper, spiritual dimension. Their stretched and transformed bodies rise in a gesture of connection, a silent dance that plays out between the sky and the city.

The work reflects Feuilloley’s unique approach, influenced by Egyptian and Khmer art, as well as the surrealism of Modigliani and Dali. With a technique reminiscent of the 15th-century Flemish masters, each brushstroke seems to breathe life, transforming the canvas into a poetic and dreamlike scene. The artist uses humor and symbolism to explore themes of love, spirituality and sensuality, creating characters that seem to float between dream and reality.

The lovers lean in, reaching out toward each other, arms outstretched, captured in a timeless dance of desire and connection. The Parisian rooftops in the background, painted with a melancholic softness, anchor the scene in a familiar reality, while inviting the viewer to imagine the secret stories unfolding within the urban landscape.

“Amoureux à Paris” is an invitation to daydream, a reminder that love, in all its vulnerability and beauty, transcends the everyday. A perfect addition for a collector who appreciates art that speaks to the soul, that explores the depths of human emotion and the mystery of connection.

A captivating work that will add a touch of surrealism and poetic reflection to any space.
