Table à Jeu

This painting features a contemplative figure, seen from the back, with his head bowed in introspection. The figure is rendered in a dynamic blend of blue and yellow hues, creating an interplay of light and shadow that gives a sense of depth and texture to the muscular form. The background transitions from bright yellow to green, enhancing the sense of calm and reflection. My use of bold, expressive brushstrokes and the interplay of cool and warm tones convey a powerful emotional resonance, suggesting themes of inner peace, strength, and self-reflection.

Harmony and Contemplation

HOW CAN I REMEMBER

Before COVID 19 quarantine, I used to travel to one or two new countries every month. Visiting new places is like opening a new world.
As we were no longer able to leave our home, I decided to find new worlds inside my house. 
This one looks nice.



New Brave World

I take pictures with my camera and also my eyes are also "shooting". From time to time on quiet nights, the shot scenes emerge in the mind. Different times, different places and different people are intermingled with each other. This disorder makes me feel harmonious and peaceful, which seems to be an essential and deep “beauty”. From my own and others, I have seen too many complexities and contradictions in human nature. There is no straight road in our world. People always come and go with hope and bend around. The so-called correctness is only a relative statement at a certain time and in a certain situation. "Misplacement" is a normal state. Reaction made is only a momentary decision of the human brain. "Wrong" could be "right", “right” could also be "wrong". In front of conflicts and crises, pessimists are desperate, and optimists have hope.

Walking Libraries 

An action, a glace, or a gust of wind, My artistic focus revolves around capturing the intersection of humanity, landscapes, and everyday life from a documentary perspective. I find enjoyment in capturing memories that are not mine. In this perpetual state of vigilance, I am everywhere and nowhere, witnessing the ephemerality of existence without pause. Through my art, I seek to preserve these fleeting moments that endure beyond the confines of time and memory. I transcend the boundaries of individuality to become a conduit for collective experience. I am both present and absent, intimately close yet distant, as I capture the impermanent nuances of life through the lens of my camera, video, and installation.

I am so close to everything I have ever wanted

"Distinguished" explores the themes of resilience and beauty through the delicate depiction of a female skull. The skull, marked by its history with syphilis and its visible scars, serves as a poignant symbol of the human spirit's resilience.

Distinguished

_Infatuation, a surface admiration of unreasonable power and attachment. But what’s more unreasonable? the power or the attachment (perspective)?_

  
_When the layers of the object of our desire, be it an actual object, person, or an idea, have yet to be revealed, we project our ideals most strongly._

  
_Perhaps infatuation is a likely attempt at control, an unintended consequence of passion, on what we might want to see, what we hope it to be, or what we’ve been made to see, as we align in a repetition of will, in patterns of our proclivities._

  
_Cartoonish and incomplete, infatuation’s unreasonable grasp paints a piercing superficial visage, an artifice, at once incomplete and lacking of the proper depth we unconsciously seek, shrouded in the modes of appreciation that attract us, like beauty, deference, and the hope of something or someone, an objectification that relents only when we progress to the knowing of true intimacy._

“Infatuation”

The neighborhood where I was born is completely changed today. Split into two parts very distinct from each other. On the one hand, we can see the harmful effects of rapid gentrification... Housing not at all affordable, property even less accessible... Leaving all the room for crooked owners who only see the realization of profit by selling this to ever more foreign interests, who care nothing about the whole community aspect. The other side of the neighborhood, the one where I was born, is even more dilapidated than it was... Left to its sad fate. an almost abandoned neighborhood whose existence no one remembers anymore and the people who remained there are still 100 times more plunged into a state of extreme precariousness... All this against the backdrop of a provincial government which completely denies a housing crisis exacerbated throughout its territory. Same government which denies ambient systemic racism and which struggles to recognize the greater precariousness of the status of women. Same government that doesn't care about the workers of its entire health network and its education network. But everything is fine in Quebec.

Un quartier en abandon

Renée LoBue’s mixed media piece, “Canyon Hero,” is a vibrant amalgamation of books, paper, fabric, vintage mica wallpaper, tape, and sequins. Dominated by the colors red, white, and blue, this piece evokes the rugged spirit of life on the prairie and the ethos of American pioneers. Central to the composition is a pie mold, symbolizing the essence of femininity that helped shape early America. The use of vintage mica wallpaper and sequins adds a nostalgic and shimmering quality, contrasting the raw textures of books and fabric. “Canyon Hero” explores themes of masculinity and heroism, drawing on the imagery and symbolism of the frontier. This work pays homage to the resilience and adventurous spirit of pioneers, blending historical references with a modern artistic sensibility.

Canyon Hero

Mas Que Chiles

The iris of night and the ivy of day, sealed with pomegranate seeds, forever intertwined with the structure of poison of which all we know resides. Put into motion by identities of glass wrapped around us in nets of silence.
