The exhibition consists of one large-format painting, a series of smaller paintings, and-new for the artist-a collage.
What is not at issue in these paintings is the search for a land between figuration and abstraction. Granted, the motifs in Richardot's works are derived from various common objects: scissors, clouds, and so on. Sometimes one spots tromp-l'oeiltraces, sly mocking ghosts of the object-that-was; at other times, the process of transformation tosses up new phantoms, a slideshow of flickering symbols, which, like the rabbit in the moon, or clowns in da Vinci's wall of smoke, may or may not really be there at all.
