Valérie Jayat's fantastical and dreamlike pictorial scenes are, of course, true expressions of our contemporary sociality. Let there be no doubt about it !
They trace and reproduce an eminently poetic, sometimes ironic but never cynical message, whose thinking is simple, free and evocative.
Their oneiric horizons or perspectives are born of soft colours with an often chiselled texture; this newly-initiated Territory is then populated by human ‘figures’, striking creatures, unusual animals, beings with ‘ otherly’ faces; lastly, are ‘set’ the details or objects of Lives implied rather than said.
Valérie Jayat's works possess a unique expression whose appearance may appear ordinary but whose meaning is definitely that of our lives....
Valérie Jayat lives and works in France.
