Ballet and the deer, 2010
Gouache on paper
183 x 150 cm
MATHILDE ROSIERS installations, sculptures, paper works, film and music performances often embody fictional offshoots or parts of a narrative. Constellations of self-made costumes, mystic representations of animals or nature often seem like props, an abandoned stage set, or solitary protagonists of a narrative that is entirely unfamiliar. The combination of painting, film, and theater constructs oneiric situations that allow the beholder to lose any sense of space and time. At the same time, within these “dream states,” characterized by empathy, a precise and conceptual analysis of codes and effects of various forms of representation in our society takes place.
