Metaxu, Les rives o\u00f9 vivent mes songes<\/em><\/strong>Augusta Lardy Micheli invites us to contemplate a universe that is both inner and outer, through the notion of Metaxu<\/em> (from the Greek, that which is \u201cin between\u201d). In the artist’s words:\u201cThe shores where my dreams live seduce me with their beauty, but a warm wind blows across the surface of the canvases. What is this summer night, far too hot, that wakes me from a summer dream? Should I fear it? This feeling of unease is inexhaustible, and nothing will stop its vivid expression through the Metaxu, which is the act of painting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Augusta Lardy Micheli<\/strong>, born in 1994 in Geneva, is a Swiss artist. She holds a BA in Philosophy from King\u2019s College London and a degree in Fine Art from the City and Guilds of London Art School. In 2021 she received the Freelands Foundation Painting Prize. Her work has been presented in solo exhibitions in Madrid (Galer\u00eda Belmonte), Paris (Galerie DS) and Mexico City (Karen Huber).<\/p>\n\n

The artist explores a \u201cliving painting\u201d, in which material and pigments invite her to let go of control and allow the essence of the work to emerge. Her approach, rooted in the body and somatic memory, can lead her to radically transform her techniques, moving from painting to sculpture, printmaking or oxidation. With her experimental method, she questions the very essence of the image, seeking to reduce it to its most fundamental elements.<\/p>\n\n
