L'artiste a réalisé cette oeuvre à partir d'un modèle vivant. L'huile utilisée sur le support (bois) donne une douceur au personnage recroquevillé sur son flanc. Les teintes naturelles mettent en parfaite perspective les reliefs de la silhouette, des muscles ainsi que le grain de peau. Le travail des mains et des pieds est fabuleux. La profondeur de la peinture est saisissante. Dans une nudité simple, le corps de l'homme est posé au sol que l'artiste a voulu dans des tons verts et bruns pour ramener aux couleurs de la terre. L'enchevêtrement des membres fait penser à une position quasi fœtale. On s'attardera sur la douceur de l'expression du visage, une grande sérénité s'en dégage, la tête appuyée sur le sol tend à penser que l'homme vit un retour à ses origines les plus profondes. Que nous reste-t-il de nos origines animales ?
Cette oeuvre est un exemplaire unique ; elle est signée par l'artiste. Un certificat d'authenticité sera délivré.

The artist made this work from a live model. The oil used on the support (wood) gives a softness to the character curled up on his side. The natural colours put in perfect perspective the reliefs of the figure, the muscles as well as the grain of the skin. The work of the hands and feet is fabulous. The depth of the painting is striking. In a simple nudity, the body of the man is placed on the ground that the artist wanted in green and brown tones to bring back the colours of the earth. The entanglement of the limbs is reminiscent of a quasi-fetal position. We will linger on the softness of the expression of the face, a great serenity emerges from it, the head leaning on the ground tends to think that the man lives a return to his deepest origins. What remains of our animal origins?
This work is a unique copy; it is signed by the artist. A certificate of authenticity will be issued.

Marijo Ponce Fest

France

Maria Josefa was born in Tangiers in 1946 after her parents, Spanish republicans, left their country after the civil war and moved to Morocco. She grew up in a cosmopolitan environment and was nourished by the colours and lights of Africa.

When she was eleven, her family returned to Europe and settled in France. Little by little, the artistic fibre emerges in parallel with her professional activities. A very short period in the aesthetic field allowed her to acquire the touch and sensitivity of the body. Nevertheless, the perceptible lack of human beings was quickly felt and Marijo naturally turned to the elderly, bringing her sensitivity to bodies steeped in experience.

Taking on her affect, exacerbating her emotions while mixing her Andalusian origins, painting and sculpture allow her to retranscribe the strength, vivacity and pain of her roots. It is only since her retirement that Marijo can fully dedicate herself to her artistic passion.

She presents her work at local exhibitions and participates in workshops while continuing to look after her family, with whom she shares her knowledge and love of art.

She then creates an anthology of creations in the form of paintings, drawings in watercolour, acrylic, pastels and charcoal of naked bodies in order to capture their emotions and translate them into expressive lines. The clay modelling gives a new way to translate his vision of the emotion felt towards his living models.

In search of a spontaneity and vitality that she makes sensitive through her brushstrokes, she does not hesitate to tell the story of these bodies - imperfect, twisted, aged - through which fragments of her own history shine through, through her paintings and the work of the clay with her sculptures.
