About this artwork
The process is simple: collect iconographic sources from photographic artists, appropriate them, integrate personal images, and connect them to create a fictional universe in which one is free to wander. This digression traces a path, a temporality, an intimacy in the interpretation of colors, light, and framing. It is a visual trajectory that offers the viewer the opportunity to touch upon a memory, to embellish it, to evoke a sensual reminiscence.…
The viewer is invited to tell themselves stories, to weave connections with their own anecdotes and daydreams.

Maxime Gougeon, a painter and draftsman originally from the province of Luxembourg in Belgium, combines painting, drawing, and performance, drawing on his training at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Liège. He uses techniques where matter and texture explore the boundaries between fictional memories and factual fantasies, creating epidermal landscapes and dreamlike universes. His work evokes nostalgia, reverie, and human fragility, inviting the viewer to lose themselves within it and touch upon their own memories and emotions.
