Loucp66 created this slate for the Galerie Montorgueil's Back 2 School auction. Technique: Black and white Posca pointillism and acrylic spray paint on slate Size: 10.2 x 7.1 inches Unique piece This artwork, titled "Back to School," is from her slate series. By depicting a familiar figure, this little Playmobil with its schoolbag, it plunges us back into that September morning. A little intimidated but ready for adventure. You walk into the classroom and your desk mate is Playmobil. But look closer at the work: the character is entirely crafted by hand, dot by dot. It's a black and white pointillism technique of great precision, reminiscent of the patience and diligence of a student at their desk. However, Laurence doesn't stop at this apparent wisdom. With a mischievous pleasure, she disrupts this strict framework with vibrant acrylic spray paint splatters. For her, it's a game: the game of making order and freedom coexist. She shows us that, beneath the uniform of the diligent schoolchild, the imagination of childhood remains effervescent and untamed. Through this dialogue between material and color, she invites us to rediscover a universal emotion, that of that suspended moment where nostalgia meets the joy of creation.
