Shadows and Jubilations

Screeching of chalk, outbursts of gestures, grainy paper, meaningful shimmers.

“The form imagined by Julie is discreet. It dances, sings, draws, muses over colors. It also tells a story. The form writes everything. It does not show off, suffuses gentle gaiety, full of winks and smiles. Peaceful and boundless the form gently draws us close.”

Excerpt from “Incommencements, meditations with Julie Bessard” by Patrick Chamoiseau
