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.

Impression lithographique d'art avec Françoise Maillet
Françoise Maillet, artiste-peintre de Betschdorf, est venue imprimer ses œuvres dans l'atelier litho Hurstel de Hohfrankenheim sous le savoir-faire d'Alain Hurstel avec la complicité de Hanke Ernst, un ami suisse.
La lithographie est un procédé d'impression d'une image d'une surface plane. La technique inventée à la fin du 18ème siècle repose sur le principe de la répulsion de l'eau par les corps gras. Le lithographe, qui emploie traditionnellement une plaque de pierre calcaire rendue rugueuse ou polie selon l'effet recherché, dessine directement sur la pierre avec un crayon gras ou un pinceau trempé dans une encre grasse, l'encre lithographique. On peut aussi exécuter les dessins à lithographier sur des plaques, spécialement traitées, de zinc (zincographie) ou d'aluminium (algraphie).
