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.
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.

Victor Cadene, decorative artist with multiple practices, creates decorative scenes in two dimensions from his drawings which he cuts out and assembles into collages. More than the precision of the line, it is the spontaneity of the composition that he seeks and the emotion of the color, essential to his work. He wants them opulent and theatrical, oscillating between exuberance and harmony.
A profusion of details enliven his works, which reflect his interest in the decorative arts in the broad sense. In particular, we can guess the influence of Baroque painting and the Rococo style, the Nabis and Matisse or even the productions of Paul Poiret's Atelier Martine.
"It's a very spontaneous and instinctive work, always linked to the field of decorative arts, but which will above all come to be emphasized by my work of colors and patterns. My drawings, I have the will that it be like a know- to do in this area, but which at the same time leads us towards a much more contemplative and much more dreamlike illustration.
I want to create as a form of aesthetics that belongs to me and in which we find all the works, all the different mediums that inspire me as a creator."
