Jade Marra
Jade Marra, the painter, has returned from an artistic residency she conducted in the south of France. This period offered her a valuable opportunity to deepen her research and explore new facets of her art.
Through this immersion, she was able to nourish her creativity and develop new techniques. She created works on both canvas and paper, with each medium providing her with a unique source of inspiration.
The landscapes and atmosphere of the south of France particularly influenced her creations, leading to a series of unique and original pieces imbued with this Mediterranean ambiance.
BEYOND THE WALLS
"Remembering Beautiful Things"
- Juliette Lemontey and Laura Pasquino
From May 18th to May 26th
The exhibition "Remembering Beautiful Things" with artists Juliette Lemontey and Laura Pasquino will take place at Château de Houtain-le-Val in Belgium.
The duo exhibition takes visitors on a poetic journey between Juliette's artworks and Laura's ceramics. It unfolds within the enchanting setting of a historic castle dating back to the 12th century. This place has witnessed the ups and downs of history, from the passions of the Duke of Brabant to the resilience of the women who have left their mark there.
Juliette Lemontey, a French painter, is known for her ability to capture life, the grace of movements, and the silences of faces. Her work on memory and identity resonates deeply with the history of Château de Houtain-Le-Val. This exhibition also marks her debut at the Grège Gallery in Belgium.
On the other hand, Laura Pasquino, a ceramist based in Amsterdam, explores life's contrasts, between softness and harshness. Through her ceramics, she plays with textures, raw strength, and the organic shapes of nature. The cracks and tears on her pieces become visual metaphors for human scars and wounds.

Tisser la couleur
Charlotte Culot
January 2020
It was during a visit to Château La Coste in 2018 that Charlotte Culot discovered a tapestry woven from a cardboard box by Le Corbusier. Struck by the modernity of this piece, she realized that she would like to transpose her works into a carpet. She came to discover the exhibition devoted to Etel Adnan, whose writings Charlotte admired, and this desire was confirmed when she noticed that the artist had also had some of her works woven in Aubusson.
The signal is clearly given, Charlotte Culot decides to follow this new path which will enrich and prolong her career as a painter that began in 1990.
This project of "weaving colour" will take shape when she meets the colourist and textile collection director Perrine Blaise who will coordinate the adaptation of the paintings, the transposition of colours and guide the choice of the production workshop.
The weavers will be Nepalese, chosen for their skill in demanding projects. Hand-spun Tibetan wool, silk and linen, dyes controlled with particular care, the collection of hand-knotted carpets Rhizomes * carpet by artist is born.
It is a long chain linking plant, animal and human, a global and spiritual notion, essential in Charlotte's universe.
The first carpet will be presented at the Château de Vogüé in the summer of 2018, during the exhibition Couleurs. Magnified by the castle's Salle des Etats, the carpet is presented vertically, reminiscent of wall tapestries. This proposal is dear to her because it affirms the link with her painted work.
The edition of one drawing is limited to 8 copies, some of the artist's very colourful works are deliberately transposed into a subtle palette of white tones with a rhythm of grey and black. Others reflect the power of collages with bright tones, emblematic of Charlotte Culot's work.
*Rhizomes for connections, ramifications, energy reservoirs.
