À propos de l'œuvre
La Terre est bleue comme une orange
Soft pastel on paper
Inspired by the surrealist words of Paul Éluard, this painting is a study in contrasts and harmony, an exploration of color, form, and poetic meaning.
At the center, an apple and a lemon emerge in their most vibrant essence, painted using only primary colors: yellow, magenta, and cyan. They rest on a deep blue surface that evokes the Earth, abstract yet familiar, echoing Éluard’s phrase in both tone and metaphor.
The background dissolves into soft violet, hinting at the quiet depth of space, infinite, weightless, and luminous.
Through this restrained palette and symbolic composition, the work invites the viewer to see the world not just as it is, but as it could be: surreal, beautiful, and charged with wonder.
