Crossing genres, mixing the most diverse materials and formats, the work of Lydie Arickx celebrates the profusion of life with a power and freedom of invention that make her one of the most unique artists today. Her arborescences go beyond the motif and its symbolic extensions to constitute the very matrix of her work, which opens itself to the multiple, to the vital impulse, to intersections and crossbreedings in a joyful plurality. In the wake of great figures in the history of art (Bosch, Grünewald, Goya, or even Ensor, Richier and Music), she deploys an intense work that carries both the tragedies of History and the beauty of everyday life, the dance of colors and the weight of materials. Faced with these magnificently staged works, and subtly illuminated by the texts that accompany them, the reader finds himself embarked on a dazzling and profoundly human adventure.
