Waddington's Auction House Biography and Notes
Melanie Authier’s paintings are spirited arrangements of conflicting elements that appeal to each viewer in a unique way. Some are drawn to the extreme ranges of dynamic colour, while others gravitate toward the controlled chaos of shapes always present in her work. Inspired by the scope of reactions to her painting, Authier creates with the intent of awakening her audience to the complexities of abstract art while retaining a sense of “playfulness.” She says, “With all of my works the attempt and goal is always to combine various visual contradictions into one imaginary space…I’m interested in creating these visual contrasts through a negotiation of oppositions…” Victrola (2009) is a complex visual experience with its disparate, rainbow coloured bands and earthy swatches of colour competing for canvas space. Geometric and organic forms alongside a dizzying composition of lulls and frenetic spaces blend together to exist in balanced harmony.
