Le Chant des Baleines

In her small-scale works, Louise Janet reveals parts of her own history. Reflective characters move about in her familiar interiors: far from wishing to portray her entourage, the artist nonetheless lets us glimpse a part of their interiority. The way a room is decorated, the casual way a comforter is left untucked on a bed, the “organized mess” strewn across the floor… Each object becomes a clue to a personality, opening the way to narrative.
