Untitled 

Here we see an untitled landscape by Hélène de Beauvoir. The surface is alive with fractured planes of color and broken forms. The work is a vibrant, evocative composition dominated by angular shapes, predominantly triangles, each filled with a diverse palette of muted pastel shades. This painting prompts us to consider the legacy of Cubism. Like the Cubists, de Beauvoir fragments the scene, yet shies away from complete abstraction by maintaining elements of landscape. The interplay of color and shape evokes a sense of movement and light, destabilizing our perception of spatial depth. The semiotic structure in her arrangement of colors and fragmented forms challenges the traditional notion of landscape. It presents a world seen through the lens of abstraction. This approach allows for a more subjective, interpretive experience. The painting functions less as a mirror reflecting the world and more as a prism refracting it.
