“Beatrice Coron (Chambéry, France, 1956) is an illustrator and artist. Shadows, reminiscent of film noir and voyeurism, leaves room for multiple interpretations.” - Beatrice Coron In my graphic style, windows are used not to see out but in, placing the spectator in an outsider/insider situation. In my artist books and public art, where I play with full and empty shapes, everything must fall in place: one’s place in the world, one’s place in the city, one’s place in his or her body. Cutting from a single piece of material, the profusion of individual stories creates a coherent universe. My silhouettes are a language I have developed over the years my point of view is both detailed and monumental. For each theme, I explore various narratives: one story leads to the next, and the creation process weaves different layers of our relations to the world. I research collective memories and myths, questioning the notions of identity and belonging. My creative inspiration comes from a text, a poem, the news or from a philosophical concept that can be reduced to a mere title. Images are conveyed through words, whether automatic writing or premeditated scenes. These invented worlds have their own logic and patterns. These compositions include memories, associations of words, ideas, observations and thoughts that unfold in improbable juxtapositions.
