Les Corons, 2017, 30x50x3cm
Acrylic on wooden canvas

Nose against the wet brick emanating a smell of decomposed wood ready to end in dust. The lichen would go up in smoke, traditionally used to make perfume from its woody notes, textile dye for beautiful shades of blue, purple and violet or for the lighting of an oil lamp but the moss is also a bait to kill wolves and foxes. Facing the wall, everything seems moldy already however it might also be a door to all windows.
