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.

Famiglie
Margaux Pecorari
July 2022
An installation by Margaux Pecorari, to be discovered until 8 July, Galerie Séguier.
Famìglia - family in Corsican,
is a construction that took hold after Pio's birth.
His arrival redistributed the roles of all the members of the existing family.
A couple becomes parents,
a mother becomes a grandmother.
If the family is a kind of house, with its foundations and load-bearing walls, the arrival of a new generation is an addition to it. A floor is added. It is a pivot that upsets the existing balance until a new balance is created.
Famìglie consists of form frames, they are its foundations. With the help of a cabinetmaker I chose to cut the frames from birch plywood; plywood for its lightness and birch for its tight fibres which ensure great
dimensional stability.
The family is a complex fabric,
on the border between the innate and the acquired.
It is a second skin.
I chose a linen fabric with a more pronounced weave than a cotton fabric to symbolise this skin that changes from generation to generation.
It is these successive elevations and moults that create Famìglie.
Famìglie is made up of free forms, hand-drawn frames, cut, covered with canvas and assembled into totems. Each form is a milestone.
Superimposed on each other, the personalities take shape.
