The Minotaure and the Star
Caroline Tapernoux in a certain way spiritual daughter of Kasimir Malevitch which she studied the work and the writings, knows that abstraction in his work was more about an metaphysical absolute than a plastic construction with no sense. If contemporary art is far too often neglecting beauty and spirituality, Caroline is the representative on edge for whom the metaphysic (the beyond of things), the intelligible and the sensible could not be separated, as they are not distinguishable in reality. « The truth of art is its power of life»*. Power which beauty and spirituality are fully part of.
The Luminances created for this room play magnifically with the particular structure of the walls, becoming almost a parietal art of the light. The tension of forms coming from the radius projected on the polycarbonate sheets delicately deformed reminds the mastership of the line and the exploitation of the reliefs of the Prehistory Masters, for instance the Chauvet grotto nearby, these artists whom perception of the world was not yet alterated by no school, no institution or self-appointed chapel holding the truth of art.

Gérard de Nerval :
« Respect in the beast an acting spirit
Each flower is a soul with a bloomed Nature;
A mystery of love lies in the metal;
All is sensitive! And all on your being is powerful. »**
