This painting was made after a visit to the Musée des Arts et Metiers in Paris, which is full of old scientificic instruments and inventions, including brass instruments for measuring every aspect of our world.
Here, the instruments of measurement have been overwhelmed by the nature that they were made to measure. An armadillo, a walking geometrical form, encountering them, is puzzled as to why anyone would go to so much effort to understand the… world.
The painting is a comment on man's strained relationship with nature. Humans have gone to enormous lengths to understand the world in which they live, but that world is ultimately insensible to their efforts and will go on existing and functioning, with or without them.
The painting is in egg tempera and gold leaf on a wooden panel with a fixed frame. It is signed and dated on the revers and is ready to hang. The dimensions given include the fixed frame.
« 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.
