Lost Forest

“Lost Forest” ( Forêt Perdue )
Dec 2023

In this work, the dark forest envelops and hides the child who seems to be a part of his environment.
The forest in which the child is positioned, is both a source of danger and protection .
The story represent the survival of a child left with and in the wild.

Lost Forest is based on a paper collage from the Heritage series. The Heritage series is made up of paper collages that tell the story of children and the world they will inherit.
The background images come from ‘Reflets de France’, Edition Raymond Schall, Paris, 1950, and the portrait photo by Bishin Jumonji is from 1980’s Zoom magazine.
Lost Forest was part of the ‘La Foret des Contes’ exhibition at the Forum Theatre in Fréjus, France in 2024.

Transfer, paper collage, pastels, acrylic and oil paint.
The transfer layers are semi transparent, and are enhanced by the paper flowers which highlight the composition.
