Every painting tells a story or more<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every picture tells a story and for artist Roselyne Chues, each one of her paintings is a multi-layered essay.<\/p>\n

The London sculptor\/painter is well known for her experimental techniques and surrealism. Her present series is a unique concept involving paintings with paralleled themes to be complemented with bronzed medallions.<\/p>\n

“I always aim to be innovative,” said Chues. The pieces that comprise her current series are based on two themes: Pure Joy and Super Powers.<\/p>\n

One painting will be of people, butterflies and flowers, but interwoven amongst all the layers are several different symbols that portray a story of pure joy to admirers. The second, or complementary painting, shows the person with a superpower, such as flying, again with multi-layered symbolism scattered throughout.<\/p>\n

“This series is about how people view the outsider,” she said from her London apartment. “Maybe a person has a disability, but at the same time they are a genius on the computer. We, as a society, will be better for accepting the outsider, protecting these people and utilizing them in our society.”<\/p>\n

She describes one painting as a journey with the outsider looking away and all of the sunflowers protecting him, with sunflowers symbolizing adoration. “There is an air of acceptance\u2026a journey of prosperity,” she says.<\/p>\n

The coins or medallions will feature a portrait of the Pure Joy painting and on the flipside, the corresponding Super Power design that complements both paintings in the series.<\/p>\n

It is a work in progress where her normal showings are anywhere from 10-12 pieces, but due to the multiple themes and the coins, she believes that the number of compositions will be more than double her usual output.<\/p>\n

The exhibition should be completed this year or at the very latest, in 2011. Chues is contacting several local and regional galleries about a possible showing, but it is a long process and most are booked two years in advance.<\/p>\n

Also in the works is an application for the Canadian Council for the Arts grant, that will financially assist her with the production of the medallions and other cost-prohibitive expenses.<\/p>\n

“This series I am working on has developed over the last few years,” Chues said. “I look at the first part of the painting and then I do research on other symbols that I use throughout, so it is a painstaking process. But I really want the painting to be an essay for the viewer, and that is what they tell me they see.”<\/p>\n

One of Chues’s fortes is instilling a sense of motion in the paintings and sculptures, not an easy feat to accomplish, but one she does with ease.”I don’t paint to just make things pretty, although I want people to think they are pretty,” she said. “My goal is that people can use my paintings for a cause, and if some posters were made out of these paintings it would be great.”<\/p>\n
