Journal Article
Élise Lafontaine
2025
Overview
Elise Lafontaine's paintings explore the relationship between the body and compartmentalized living spaces she encountered during artist residencies. Her work captures the organic reality of the body and its environment, expressing emotional experiences through enchanting modulations of color. Lafontaine's use of symmetry and axial balance in her paintings reflects the human body's structure. She has recently introduced undulating volumes to her work, creating a sense of transformation and paradox. Lafontaine's art is reminiscent of painters such as Hilma af Klint and Georgia O'Keeffe, seeking an abstraction that blurs the line between figurative forms.
