I accumulate layers of materials,” says Maryline Lemaitre
in describing her canvases, and it takes only a short
examination to discover that the layers of which she speaks are
both literal and figurative. Achieving what she calls “pictorial
density” a process involving paint, dry pigments, marble dust,
collages and other media. Those materials are applied to the
canvas in a wide variety of ways, from large brushstrokes,
to dripping paint, to using old credit cards. The result is a
mysterious world in which things seem to arise from unseen
depths, feeling a bit like modern-day cave paintings, with the
subjects revealing themselves to us in fragments. Buildings,
birds or human figures emerge from dense fields of color
that often have the muted sheen of frescoes or weathered
industrial materials. Artist signatures will float across a canvas,
or a piece of printed matter will appear in mirror-image, with
the beginnings and ends of the words cut off. The earthiness of
these works is emphasized by a palette that conjures up earth,
rust and antiquity.
However, French-born Lemaitre, who now lives and works in
Montreal, has a good sense of when to let a block of bright
color appear. A band of blue or a field of rich reds and pinks will
be used to add some provocative movement to an image —
just one of the techniques that gives her work its astonishing
freshness.
