La solitude des fantômes
Galerie Laroche/Joncas
The painting exhibition "The Solitude of Ghosts" by artist Christian Messier is presented at Galerie Laroche/Joncas in 2022. The paintings propose enigmatic situations of connivance between characters. Inspired by this idea, the deliberately incomprehensible scenes seek to reproduce the experience of withdrawal of an introvert within a group. The works thus offer an experience of solitude to each viewer who must accept not understanding the interaction between the characters. Christian Messier's paintings appeal to strangeness and invite the viewer to open portals to singular worlds, thus reinforcing the impression of finding oneself face to face with ghosts or rather, of becoming the ghost oneself.
