Admiratio
For Noémie Sauve, inspiration always begins in contact with a field. This exhibition presents works from two scientific expeditions – Tara (2017) and Vulcano (2021). On site, she collects data, samples, colours and shapes. Back in the studio, by exploring multiple formats and techniques, between drawing, sculpture and chemical reactions of materials, she seeks to recreate the invisible and threatened worlds of corals or the incandescence of a volcanic stone. Noémie Sauve navigates freely and without hierarchy between the naturalistic and fantastic registers to create works that, in the mode of analogy and diversion, invite us to wonder and inquiry.
