EXCERPT from the text "Reality is much greater when seen from within" by Elisa Rigoulet for DDA Nouvelle Aquitaine. (...) Accepting external disorder, accepting disorder within oneself, and finally accepting disorder in painting. Letting go. Cherishing the blur. Camille Beauplan reads space like a book, from left to right and in two dimensions. Oil painting then becomes the medium for a psychic immersion and a break with planes, a refusal to situate and limit the scene, a desire to dilute. Everything becomes soft, draped, horizontal.
