Seeking the Light (Chercher la lumière) (2025) Original Mixed-media Painting by Séverine Loisel

A deeply textured abstract that glows from within its own darkness. Aubergine and burgundy browns dominate the upper field, shot through with iridescent violets, blues and silvers that shift with the light. The surface is heavily worked — thick impasto and granular relief building an almost geological depth.
True to its title, light breaks through from below: a luminous passage of silver-white and pale lilac pools across the lower half, like dawn pushing up through shadow. The darkness here is not despair but a threshold — a visual metaphor for emergence, and the search for clarity through obscurity.
A contemplative, atmospheric statement piece for anyone drawn to depth, texture and a quiet sense of hope.
