About this artwork
The water is dark, agitated, and pierced by unstable reflections. Everything happens in a few seconds.
A child almost disappears beneath the surface. His face tilts back towards the sky, his mouth open to catch his breath, one hand outstretched in an instinctive gesture.
The woman dives.
Her body cuts through the swirling waters and stabilizes amidst the tumult. In this chaos of deep blues and bursts of light, a simple gesture emerges: her hand… grasps that of the child.
The rescue hinges on this contact.
One hand holding another hand.
Around them, the painting becomes movement. The brushstrokes fragment the water into shards and eddies, as if the canvas itself carried the violence of the moment.
At the edge of the pool, a second child watches. Motionless.
Witness to the moment when the game tips towards danger, and when a presence brings life back to the surface.
Émilie Vas primarily uses oil paint, watercolor, and drawing, incorporating a rich cultural journey through France, Italy, and Asia into her artistic practice. She employs classical techniques, layering light and shadow, while emphasizing the materiality of the medium, the interplay of solid and void, and contrasts of saturated colors. Through her works, she conveys the fragile and unpredictable beauty of existence, the complexity of the human soul, and the pure hope of childhood.
