About this artwork

In Au Fil de l'Histoire, the artist immerses us in a universe where time and memory are woven around books and their stories. Through the use of oil on canvas and brushstrokes with a knife, the work creates a dense and palpable texture that gives great materiality to the representation of books, symbols of stories and knowledge accumulated over time.

The choice of colours, ranging from beige to dark tones, creates a subtle and soothing contrast,… evoking a feeling of depth and calm. Each book, although reduced to its edge, seems to carry within it a promise of an unfinished story. The books overlap in an ordered but not fixed composition, like a continuous flow that defies the passage of time and the lines between order and chaos.

« To sublimate, to appropriate the subject, to keep only the essential. »

Sophie Dumont is a contemporary French painter born in Paris in 1964. She currently lives and works in Normandy. Her work, primarily oil on canvas, explores the memory of places through abstract landscapes, stylized libraries, and studio interiors. Through the layering of numerous paints and subtle collages, she constructs structured compositions where matter, light, and color interact. Her work is distinguished by a balance between architecture and pictorial sensibility. Exhibiting for over twenty years in France and internationally, notably in Germany, Canada, Belgium, and Italy, Sophie Dumont's work is now featured in numerous private and museum collections.
