The work of Cécile Belmont is composed of various
activities that influence each other
and create a particular dynamic. The embroideries, the cut-paper installations,
the
clothing and the urban interventions act as locations for action that
widen the possible
dissemination of her images, placing them in different contexts and relationships
to the
audience – from the street into the gallery and from the gallery
on to the street.
By using simple means and techniques, her work asserts itself as a space
where the
fragile intensity of the human – with its emotions, desires, relationship
with the others
and with reality – is put back into the center of thought.
By confronting the individual and the collective, she questions how to
speak about the
world through intimacy and how this intimacy receives the deflagrations
of the external
world.
Resolutely inscribed in the reality which surrounds it – the wall,
the street – her work
proposes an appropriation of public space and everyday life as a place
for self-expression
and encounter with the other.
