Hanging
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.

Virginie Hucher & Emmanuelle Roule
September 2021
The poetry of form
Everything happens in two stages.
First there is the imposing form.
Then there is the material and its movement, which gives it life.
Virginie Hucher is at one with nature. She has created her own register of forms, almost a language: floating organic elements on a monochrome background.
These forms are almost familiar to us, like primordial bodies, elements that exist and are visible at the microscopic level that the artist brings to our scale. They are part of us, they surround us, they compose us. Vital forms that evoke our natural environment in their register, their colours and the evocative titles chosen by the artist. It is the earth, the sky, the tree, the fertile... the living that are invoked here. /.../
What may at first seem disconcertingly simple - in colour, form or composition - is in fact a kind of self-evident truth.
Our gaze is soothed and free: we can question what we see or be carried away by an endless imagination.
Organic architecture
Emmanuelle Roule's work seems closer to sculpture than to the usual practice of ceramics.
She frees herself from the form by any means necessary... she sets it free.
Thanks to its plasticity, earthenware allows Emmanuelle to reconstruct spaces.
Like imaginary architectures, more organic, sometimes angular, but always enhanced by rich, figurative glazing.
Two colours in particular adorn her pieces: green and blue. The reflections projected on the colours enliven and brighten them, giving the sculpture an organic dimension at the edge of life.
With mischief and poetry, the artist often punctuates her constructions with modular, autonomous pieces, sometimes in shiny silver enamel, like a playful invitation to make her world your own.
