Claire Lavendhomme
More Info
Claire Lavendhomme
Born in 1959
Lives and works in Brussel (Belgium)
(…)”If we may be so bold: the sharp edge of sensitivity on the one hand, the very subtle construction on the other. All of it in a sort of perpetually threatened emotion”.
(… )”Si l’on peut aller jusque là, le tranchant de la sensibilité d’une part, la très subtile construction d’autre part, tout cela dans une sorte d’émotion perpétuellement menacée”.
J-M H 1995
“Claire Lavendhomme plays with the” philosophical “notions of life using the form in an almost bi-dimensional way. Her work reveals something subtle, vibrant, poetic, mysterious …”
