Oiseau de Paradis

Painting located in the La Table d'Albert

Auvray does not distinguish dysfunctional, high art objects from garments and objects of everyday use, such as necklaces, rings, or masks. In an interview with the artist, Auvray explains her approach to subject matter in her work: “I think the subjects in my paintings are not particularly important. I like it when things happen by themselves in my paintings; when I don’t really have a choice; when I feel a need to do it. I still need to feel the necessity to paint what I am going to paint. I know that my work will not be its best if I don’t feel the need to do it.”
