Fluctuate 2

Oil on canvas - 2023

Fluctuat 2 by Corinne Foucouin is a vibrant and immersive painting that captures the dynamics and vitality of a forest through a rich and varied palette of colors. Using bold hues of blue, green, red and purple, the artist creates a dreamlike and captivating scene where light and shadow dance harmoniously.

The composition is dominated by majestically standing tree trunks, rendered in vibrant hues of red and orange. These warm colors contrast sharply with the blue and green hues of the background, creating a visual depth that immediately draws the eye. The trunks, although firmly anchored to the ground, appear to vibrate and fluctuate, adding a sense of movement and energy to the work.

The brushstrokes are expressive and textured, adding a tactile dimension to the canvas. The color transitions are subtle and fluid, creating an atmosphere of mystery and serenity. The touches of light, rendered by bursts of lighter color, suggest rays of sunlight piercing through the dense foliage, adding additional dynamics to the scene.

The title Fluctuat 2 suggests a state of fluctuation or constant change, capturing the essence of a natural environment in perpetual evolution. This idea is reinforced by the way the colours and shapes seem to blend and shift, creating a sense of movement and life.

Her technique of superimposing layers of paint and her transitions of hues create a harmonious and balanced composition. Each element of the work seems carefully thought out to maximize the visual and emotional impact, offering a rich and captivating sensory experience.
