We live in a photographic landscape
"Shutter - commonly used in 35mm SLRs.", ... reality - unreality, negative or positive. when the source is photography and when the image; when is the purpose of the picture, and when is photography? .
Photography has been deprived of its former, only function of reminding and recording the image. Her intensively increased role triggered a new "media awareness" in the viewer. It is full of mass reproduction, photocopies, presentation or message. Media, video, photography, computer graphics are now the inevitable "multiplicity" of the image that surrounds us. This leads to a completely new perception of reality, a new view and perception in today's observer.
Pascale Heliot tells in her paintings about a look at the existing, random reality. The picture becomes the beginning, second, third and next step to the canvas, but it can not be said that the last. The author moves as if "between photos", they are the source and creative process. The resulting work and the accidental, different space photographed with it create another changed, painterly real fragment. This process of contacting the real world with the image and combining it into one whole creates a painting "travel space". Pascale's "photographic" manners describe the "imagery" of possible contemporary situations. She often uses several types of styles to convey the difference of a particular fact he incorporates, as he says- "..
"Twister" is a series about space that is no longer "sufficient". They are constantly photographed and moved, shots of places, people, lights, and moments are thrown into a different reality. The artistic message is constantly gaining a different value, associations and interpretations. It is a duplication of expression, space, movement, frames. painting, not "after-photography" but "after-media", shaped from processed "media" fragments. It enables the merging of images taken from various visual transmission tools on a plane. These canvases are a form of "photo" that recalls the future as its essence, and not necessarily the past. "Twister" is for me a "tourist moving landscape", at the same time flat and spatial, internal and external, open. I have the impression that the recipient is always inscribed in it. The "moving landscape" prompts us to search for a source of inspiration, which remains an unsolved mystery.
One postmodern philosopher calls the outside world a "desert of reality," Pascale tries to escape from it by creating her "animated mirror landscape" - his place.
