Marie-Claire Mitout

Since 1990, she undertakes a plastic work based on the sensitive memory and the thickness of time the thickness of time, entitled "Les Plus Belles Heures", a series of painted images fixing the best moment of the past day. In addition to the interest for the moments of life, the artist invests the field of the words to retranscribe what is said through a unique pictorial gesture.
