Monique Mouton Exhibition at Spazio Veda in Florence
Monique Mouton (born 1984 in Fort Collins, Colorado) presents a solo exhibition at Spazio Veda in Florence. Her work features soft figuration and chromatic lyricism, evoking Art Brut, Informale, and Abstraction. The undulating, irregular surfaces of her forms convey an impulse to expand paint beyond formal boundaries, giving them an 'alien' character and transforming them into vaguely zoomorphic bodies. An 'architectural' play sets volumes in motion. Mouton uses forms and colors to create delicate yet impactful atmospheric fades, balancing intention and chance, action and reflection. Her works revisit abstraction as imagined by Klee and Kandinsky, infusing it with references to nature and interiority. The exhibition is reviewed by Niccolò Lucarelli.
