Création Astrale
Oil on canvas
Virginie Hucher’s small painting condenses her signature exploration of depth, tone, and geometry into an intimate scale. Through layered brushstrokes and tonal gradients, she carves out forms that feel sculptural, as though light and shadow themselves have been shaped within the composition.
While minimalist in approach, the work holds quiet complexity, inviting contemplation of balance and movement. Rooted in Taoist principles, it suggests an underlying harmony—where every element, no matter how subtle, contributes to a greater whole. In this smaller format, Hucher’s mastery of abstraction remains expansive, drawing viewers into a moment of stillness and depth.

About the Artist
Virginie Hucher
French artist Virginie Hucher centers her artistic expression on vibrant acrylic and oil paintings, as well as performance and sculpture, all exploring themes connected to nature, the human body, and life itself. Hucher trained in the studios of Michel Gouéry, Bruno Lebel, and Marc Alberghina, developing a unique sensibility for abstract forms. She liberates herself through a creative process that combines dance and drawing, resembling a performance, using abstract forms to tell stories of nature.
