Abstract Art "Fossile" with the painter Hélène Lachapelle
 
Fossile, an original creation by Quebec artist Hélène Lachapelle, is an intriguing abstract work that evokes the mystery and strength of nature. Created in 2024, this small-format painting (10 x 10 inches) on gallery canvas is made with acrylic and inks, exploring an innovative and spontaneous approach.

Lachapelle ventured into a liberated gesture, with no predefined expectation of the outcome. The creative process behind Fossile reflects a genuine artistic experimentation. On a background rich in liquid medium, the artist allowed acrylic pigments and inks to blend and interact organically. By adding water, Lachapelle breathed life into her composition, achieving unique textures and unpredictable effects.

The choice of title, Fossile, enhances the impression of an ancient discovery or a fragment of memory buried in time. The earthy tones and subtle shades of beige, brown, and gold reinforce this connection to natural elements, inviting the viewer to immerse themselves in a textured and deeply evocative universe. The result is both timeless and captivating, reminiscent of the traces that time leaves on matter.

This work fits perfectly within Lachapelle’s artistic approach, where the exploration of material and color plays a central role. Fossile is an ideal piece for contemporary art lovers seeking works that provoke thought and emotion. Available in a compact format, it integrates seamlessly into any interior space.
