JANVIER, CIEL 5

Ink drawing

2020​

​

In her works Ciels ( skies ), Charlotte Gosselin seeks a contrast and a balance between the lines and the interstices, by practicing the straying of the lines and the hatching in a spontaneous and random way. An abstract drawing is then constructed which invites contemplation and the bewilderment of those who are looking at it.

 

The work Janvier, Ciel 5 is a huge drawing of 3 feet by 6 feet done in ink on paper representing an abstract image, reminiscent of the landscape of a sky at night. It is composed of hatching made with a technical pencil of 0.18 millimeter.

​

The work was part of the exhibition Ice is leaving, presented in February 2020 at the Galerie Perché of la Cenne, cultural space in Montreal.
