Acrylic on canvas, plant ashes – 174 x 240 cm (2023)
In Empreintes n°593 , Pierre-Luc Poujol immortalizes the memory of trees with poignant intensity. The trunks, erect like silent vestiges, seem to emerge from a buried past, capturing the imprint of time and the elements.
The plant ashes integrated into the composition reinforce this notion of transformation and rebirth. The subtle contrast between the shades of gray, white and black evokes the trace left by fire, a natural erosion that shapes the material while revealing its raw beauty.
At the crossroads of abstraction and figuration, Empreintes n°593 is a powerful and contemplative work, where each detail tells a story of resilience and ephemerality. An ode to nature and its capacity to be reborn, despite the indelible imprint of time.
