Françoise Pétrovitch

Françoise Pétrovitch's art is closely tied to the torments and fissures of adolescence-that in-between state that probes the mysteries of the human psyche. Her figures, marked by a sense of restraint, even erasure, nonetheless reveal an inner turmoil, a psychic density on the verge of overflowing. The dreamlike nature of the colours and shapes heightens the sense of emotional trouble and contained racket.

On a Bone disturbs the notion of linear time. The artist juxtaposes works from different periods within the MO.CO.'s vast spaces. Sometimes created thirty years apart, they are placed within the same space and under the same light. Their simultaneous presence creates telescoping effects but also resonances, allowing the viewer to grasp a sense of continuity.
