Presentation

« Des identités devenues invisibles, des corps fondus dans des auréoles de couleurs. Des cachettes graphiques pour se protéger du regard de l’autre. »   Emilie Chaudet, Les Petits matins de France Culture, 09/05/2017.

« Au cœur de la blessure même, se concentre une chaleur vibrante. »   Anne Malherbe,  Les Publications d’Occhiata, oct. 2015.

« l’artiste part souvent du verso du canevas ; ce qu’elle m’apprend dans l’entretien. C’est déjà un postulat. Comme si le verso était le passé du recto »   Léon Mychkine, ART-ICLE, mai 2024.

L’œuvre de Christine Smilovici, d’inspiration brute, est protéiforme : elle convoque avec prédilection la broderie, la couture, la photographie plasticienne, et le dessin. Elle se définit comme une exploration de processus psychiques, notamment liés à des « traumas » ou participant à l’histoire collective. Plus généralement, elle est le témoin de notre rapport à soi et au monde environnant, immédiat et familier ou même plus lointain, questionnant incessamment nos attaches ou nos points de rupture, notre relation à la puissance des énergies vitales mais aussi à la dégradation, à la violence et à la mort.

Le corps en est une thématique privilégiée voire obsessionnelle, apparaissant souvent sous une forme organique et réelle. C’est dans ce creuset épais de la matière où le sang circule ou se répand que l’artiste aime interroger au plus près le sens du vivant mais aussi celui de la création artistique en tant que démarche d’accomplissement absolu. Le vêtement tend alors fréquemment ses tissus à ouvrager, comme enveloppes du corps, prolongements ou parures ; les images, les papiers, les cartons découpés offrent et conjuguent quant à eux bien des histoires particulières et des géographies de la nature.
