Instants poudrés (2019) Textile Art by Françoise Maillet

Francoise Maillet is a contemporary award-winning French artist. The subject of her paintings is the city where everything is a precarious balance, a permanent instability. She builds, destroys and then rebuilds her cities. From darkness to light, from monochrome to color, from accumulation to dilution and mutation, from evolution to adaptation; all these stages summarize her work.

In recent years, textile art has become a formidable field of exploration with multiple possibilities. Textile fibers in all their states, so tactile, so alive and so talkative, have allowed the artist to stage strange characters who are not far from what we are. For the conception of the works, the techniques are diverse like felting, dyeing, free stitching or embroidery with the addition of glass elements. Once the fibers are orchestrated, they are ready to tell us the comedy of life.

Francoise Maillet was born in 1956, in France. She exhibited her works in France and Germany.
