Perrine Boudy

Drawing is the starting point for Perrine Boudy's
practice: starting on paper, her line escapes to
ceramics and then covers walls. Her research
revolves around line, gesture and, of course, the
source of images. Strongly influenced by the Greco-
Roman period, her inspirations go far beyond this:
she is perpetually on the lookout for “the” detail, a
detail from a past work, or from a more recent
cartoon, which she can then integrate into her work,
having “digested” it through the prism of drawing.
She always strives to find a point of tension, the same
point that makes up the balance between the
decorative arts and the fine arts; the aim is to play
with this boundary so as to be able to create her own
mythology in a space that I would like to be total.
