Inventory | Marie Le Lievre

About the event

Relinquishing of complete control is the wellspring of discovery for Marie Le Lievre. Her singular paintings require the ground as a starting point – paint is poured onto the canvas and manipulated by hand in an intuitive process that allows the medium to take its own course.

With a background in psychology, these works – painting, drawing, photography and collaborative film – become an explorative self-portrait of the artist.
