The Blouse De Lyon at the studio of Émilie Marc,
painter and ceramist
at 12 rue Gérando, 75009 Paris
In her studio, Émilie Marc does not only paint landscapes: she captures the soul of clouds, the moving light of skies and that ephemeral poetry where the atmospheric and the vegetal dialogue with the infinite.
Émilie wears a painter and sculptor shirt in cotton and linen from Clivia Nobili with a short sheep's wool vest from La Blouse de Lyon and a cotton apron apron from Le Laboureur.
A graduate of Villa Arson, Émilie transforms each canvas or mural into a meditation on the moment, where the sky becomes both subject and decoration, revealing its transparency, its lightness and that voluptuousness that only the ephemeral can offer.
For her, the cloud — elusive and always unique — is much more than a motif: an obsession, a pretext for painting. As John Constable wrote: "painting is just another word, synonymous with feeling."
Her paintings are a part of the tradition of 18th-century painted wall and ceiling decorations, where serene and dreamlike skies, in trompe-l'œil, create the illusion of an infinite celestial space, inviting dreaming and escape.
In parallel, she explores ceramics, extending her dialogue with nature through objects where matter and gesture respond to each other.
