L'orée des rêves

L'orée des rêves
Solo show, Frac Picardie
45 rue Pointin, 80000 Amiens
From March 1st to June 14th

In the showcase at Le Cloître, Maxime Verdier plunges into a world that is both fairytale-like and disturbing, a world he fashions by drawing on a repertoire of shapes, childhood memories and everyday anecdotes to create a story that oscillates between reality and fiction.

As well as drawing, which is an important part of his artistic practice, he also makes miniature models - with surrealist influences - where every detail is a clue that will feed a fiction that the viewer wants to tell himself.
