Bénédicte Allée
Living and working in the French Alps, Bénédicte Allée creates abstract
landscapes rooted in color, light, and silence. Each painting begins in dialogue with natural elements — the shifting blues of glacial ice, the muted tones of stone, the fractured line of a ridge, the rush of a torrent.
Each painting begins in dialogue with natural elements — the shifting blues of glacial ice, the muted tones of stone, the fractured line of a ridge, the rush of a torrent.
Guided by simple, balanced compositions, she works with deep indigos, soft whites, and earthy
tones, finding harmony between muted and vibrant hues.
Through transparent and opaque layers, delicate drips, and traces of drawing, her paintings evoke both contemplation and movement — spaces where vastness and intimacy coexist.
Rather than depicting nature, Allée
translates its emotional resonance: the immensity of mountains, the fragility
of light, and the quiet strength that endures within transience.
In these luminous spaces where color breathes, she invites the viewer into a dialogue between energy and stillness — a quiet encounter with the elemental forces of the earth, where presence and silence converge.
