Martine COPENAUT
(Belgium, 1955-2004)
Martine Copenaut discovered drawing and weaving at the same time, which is doubtless why her very colourful graphic compositions, with closely set motifs, seem to illustrate the weft of a tapestry. Her abstract creations juxtapose rounded geometric forms evoking the blossoming of a flower up to the very edge of the petals; a stream of multi-hued blossoms pushing against one another until there is no white space left.
