"Nightmereden: la création 1" immerses us in a cosmic vision, inviting the viewer to contemplate a primordial scene of creation that is both strange and fascinating. The title, "nightmare," evoking the concept of a nightmare in English, cleverly combines "night" (the cosmic night, the beginning before dawn), "mer" in French (the sea, symbolizing fluidity and the amniotic liquid of creation), and "Eden" (the bucolic and concrete dimension of genesis), summarizing this alliance of mysticism and materiality within a universe of horror and dreams.
In this composition, strange mythological creatures, deities, or monsters emerge from swirling clouds and brilliant stars, illustrating a fluid imagination in perpetual metamorphosis.
The vibrant contrast between the dark colors of space and the bright, luminous flowers creates a bucolic aesthetic where horror and beauty harmoniously intertwine. The floral forms, emerging alongside fierce creatures, reinforce the idea of a living creation in continuous transformation, oscillating between terror and enchantment.
This contrast suggests that the birth of matter is both frightening and sublime, an equilibrium between destruction and blossoming, trying to capture the very essence of creation and the infinite evolution of the universe.
