ART: ALICE GAUTIER
Hunter's Vision, 2020, hand cut collage, 8.8 x 12.9 cm
Alice Gautier is a former student in art history who makes hand-cut collages with all sorts of papers she finds (magazines, scores, textbooks, newspapers, etc.). She never prints anything; she always works in a "recycling" spirit with all these papers she gathers. She has a passion for puns, poetry that she is using in her collage's titles. She loves to make anachronic compositions and harmonizing colours and tries to denounce through her works sexism, capitalism, cliché and causes that matter to her. This collage aims to make fun of hunters by imagining their perceptions, looks, and impressions when they see a wild animal, like here a doe. They do not see the beauty of the animal, nor the elegance of its jump, but a game, a meal on legs. A bit like in the cartoons Tom & Jerry or Tweety & Silvester where the predatory cat sees the mouse or the bird as a snack. IG: @amour_de_ma_vue PAGE 26 | THE PURPOSEFUL MAYONNAISE
