GILLES BALMET ELSEWHERE Elsewhere is a series of painting made with glycero painting and a lot of water, using the rejection properties of the mixture inspired by the "à la cuve" paper in old books. The compositions evoque strange visions from space or biological images taken with a microscope in the idea to link the extremely big to the extremely little in a picture. There is a kind of sedimentation on the surface of the canvas which gives the viewer the opportunity to approach from different distances the paintings.
