Original artwork

In Les oiseaux sauvages, Gabrielle Dumont draws us into a world filled with tenderness, freedom, and poetry. Two embracing figures move through a landscape bathed in light, as if suspended in a moment of intimacy and softness. Wrapped in a breath of red and radiance, their presence evokes the strength of connection, closeness, and the beauty of shared emotion.

The richness of encaustic gives the work a vibrant depth, where shades of white, bluish gray, pink, ochre, and red blend into a textured and shifting surface. The large orb suspended in the sky serves as a silent point of reference, heightening the contemplative and almost dreamlike atmosphere of the scene.

In the foreground, organic forms appear like a reflection of the figures, but transformed into birds. This symbolic presence creates a subtle dialogue between the human and the living world, between inner emotion and instinctive movement. Gabrielle Dumont thus suggests a poetic correspondence between people and nature, as though the figures carry within themselves a wild, free, and winged essence.

Through this sensitive composition, the artist celebrates the power of connection, the freedom to be, and the profound resonance between the inner world and the natural world. A luminous and enveloping artwork in which love and freedom take flight.
