The privileged medium of her practice, painting allows Marion Artense Gély to explore worlds seemingly beyond the reach of our senses; where the reverse side of things lies, where forms appear as transitory states. The contourless motifs that emanate from her canvases create spaces of equivocal dimensions, in which the infinitely large and the infinitely small write stories where dawn and dusk seem to meet.

Marion Artense Gély uses the ancient techniques of glazing and sfumato in a logic of ceaseless pentimento (each canvas is the result of an accumulation of 50 to 120 layers of oil paint). Her gesture is close to that of the archaeologist searching, among the strata of ancient worlds, for a trace of what once was, however dreadful or grandiose, however foreign or visceral it may be.

La Quête des Lucioles invites the viewer to regain this state by wandering among pictorial and sculptural verticalities that immerse them in a landscape. Plant-like ceramics turn into totems, and the suspended canvases let light in like the stained-glass windows of a nave. Introspection and meditation can then begin. Forms and colours suddenly appear beneath closed eyelids. Phosphorescent lights, fleeting and rhythmic, fill the space, and bodies emerge. The relationship between inside and outside is reborn. La survie des lucioles… And the landscape has become a pays-sage.

Wandering across the summits of the Hawaiian mountains and along the roads leading to the stones of Carnac, Marion gathers images of sacred places. Step by step, she sets her body to work to collect fragments of whatever bears witness to the journey made to reach these places. Here we find the remains of a temple or the trace of a ritual by the sea, but also the smoke rising from ground too hot, and an icy environment. What resonates within, resonates in the image.

Marion plays with luminous matter: lunar, solar or artificial. A spotlight on the canvas, a light box that re-illuminates the photographic image. She brings forth elusive landscapes belonging to intermediate worlds, where materiality and spirituality tease one another. Whether we stand before her paintings or her photographs, the image is there to remind us that an event has taken place.

Sound: Guillaume Mallaret.

Altar, 2020, with Émilie Heddebeaux. Installation view. — *Altar*, 2020, with Émilie Heddebeaux. Installation view.

It is with a humble gaze on the plant, mineral and sensory world that she stages the objects that interest her. Humans seem to have deserted the spaces she photographs, and the time of the images is uncertain. It is a world where elements tied to earth and sky are sublimated and hold a different place, perhaps existing outside the time of the Anthropocene.

She seizes the materiality of rock with a precision that offers the viewer a piercing image. We wander through the exhibition space among photographs of menhirs mounted on picture rails that replay their scale. Enveloped in the set-up she creates, we take the time to observe the stone more closely.

Her investigations are sensitive wanderings in which she gives herself over to observing the interactions between sky and earth. What lies beyond her, what lies beyond us.

With Émilie Heddebeaux.
