Detailed description

Picture "The Deep - Deep Sea Fish" (2023)

Pisces are often expelled and excluded by us humans from our personal, conscious world. They are nevertheless present, because they dwell indelibly in us: in dreams and in pictures they are parables for our inner form. Pisces archetypically symbolize a life from the depths of our soul and feelings, for fish, by analogy, live in the depths of water. To feel "like a fish in water" means to be in one's element, in one's center. The characteristic of Pisces is totality, since they are completely surrounded by water, that flowing element which also stands for our own emotional world.

About Mo Fontaine

Mo Fontaine's work is all about color and its manifold expressions: from subtle to expressive.
In her still lifes, portraits and collages, she combines elements from different cultures and times, because she loves the European art of the old masters as much as the Japanese art of the 17th century. In this way, 'decelerated', magical-sensual images are created, which also transport the discredited concept of beauty. Seen in this light, some of the paintings seem to have 'fallen out of time' - not least because the paintings quite consciously refuse a fundamental category of the avant-gardes: the 'art of artlessness'. The aim is a timeless art that will certainly still function in two or three hundred years. She completed her artistic training at the Folkwang-Hochschule in Essen.
