    Description

    Art painting of horses herd in a pasture.
    Contemplated horses in a field. Watch them evolve in a natural environment, free of humans is always fascinating. I've quickly figured out that they create a zen space, calm and serene. At 90% of their daily time, there is no aggression, just interactions. And very subtle interactions! A 2 mm ear move and the horse in front push his body away. No need to shout or gallop like a crazy to be heard.

    No doubt that if I move eyebrows in front of a guy in the post office to show him that I'm very angry… he'll surely never even see that my face has changed!

    That's a shame. We lost our understanding of body language the same time the modernity growth. Unfortunately, I happened to know recently that we speak with our body at something like 80% and words with the remaining %. Huge!

    It comes as no surprise that we're not very efficient to understand our 4 hairy legs we adore.

    Concept

    Horses are the pretext, paint is the means of expression to express her emotions.

    Benedicte Gelé started to paint horse with a figurative expression as it was very natural for her. Except that she’s refused to keep that way of style. Inside her, there were much more than just the representation of the animal, something more personal that Gelé hadn’t find out yet.

    The horse is taken as a body with round shapes, bones, angles that reminds her nude lessons at school. She’s chosen the horse but it could have been a female model as they share common points.

    Year after year, the line took the central part of her art like a common thread with the powerful black chalk she always kept. The graphic designer in her are never very far away and kept influencing her work.

    She also an explorer when it comes to technique and Gelé always try new mediums to keep a kind of freshness, have infinite possibilities and choice of expression in her work. Her art is rich in texture, contrast and use complementary color palettes blended together.

    Year after year, her horses became more abstract as well with the essential to express the movement and the expressivity. A kind of semi abstract painting where the animal remains in the lines and the emotional in the core of her art.
