About this artwork
This group of four small, egg tempera paintings represents the medieval elements: earth, water, air and fire. The artist limits her palette here to the primary colours and black and white, the elements from which all colour is made. The natural world is the focus of the work, including the materials of the painting - gold, iron oxide red and carbon black, which are constantly in the front of the artist's mind as she works, grinding the dry pigments…
by hand in egg to make her paint.
The paintings are semi-abstract and geometrical but also illustrative and richly atmospheric - a golden root finding its way into the dark earth, a curling wave, a glittering, gilded sun sending its rays out into an empty expanse of sky and a fire, glowing at its base.
The dimensions include a one centimetre gap between each panel. The panels are signed and dated on the back and have rings attached so that they are ready to hang.
This painting was selected for the Rambouillet Biennale in 2021.

« I seek to rekindle in contemporary viewers a sense of wonder, awe and tenderness in relation to the world around them. »
Lara Broecke's passion for early Italian art was born while living in Florence. She currently lives in France and paints using early Italian techniques - gold leaf and egg tempera paint, made by hand-grinding pigments in egg yolk, on wooden panels coated with gesso. She marries a medieval sensibility with contemporary compositions, creates rich representations of the natural world and man's relationship to it.
