Fabienne Rivory – Labokoff
Posted by Fabio 22 October 2013
French artist Fabienne Rivory’s project Labokoff, explores the interactions between photography and painting, real world and imagination, memories and reality.
My images are built around photographs that are picked in my personal collection: landscapes, nature, silhouettes…These are individual memories but, through the choice of the photos , the way they are processed, and the minimalism of the resulting pictures, they become more universally evocative and can remain anybody a place, a memory, an emotion…
Painting is made of gouache or inks that are then digitally combined with photos, it is employed as textures, splatters or lines and shifts the images in a dreamy register. It brings vibrancy and add the strength of colors and shapes to raw photographs which creates a more subjective and poetic vision.
These are dreamed images trying to recreate a momentary emotion that anyone can feel in front of nature’s beauty, a particular architectural shape, a landscape passing by or the silhouette of a beloved one._Fabienne Rivory
