“My eternity has died and I am making it” Cesar Vallejo
This series of small canvases plunges us into two different ways of seeing and experiencing painting: the grid/the surface (echoing to minimalist art) and the suggestion of distance found in more traditional landscape painting. This creates a tension and excitement reminding us the physicality of viewing. Johanna Baudou creates a bridge between a bodily based dimension through the marks and grid that remain on the surface of the canvas and an open-ended space that removes us into a metaphysical elsewhere.
