L'Absence Écrite is a striking work that plays with contrasts and empty spaces to subtly express a reflection on knowledge and absence. Through this oil on canvas, measuring 80 x 80 cm (31.5 x 31.5 in), Sophie Dumont, renowned for her skill in manipulating both material and color, immerses us in a world where books, symbols of knowledge and stories, appear both present and absent.
The shelves, filled with dark volumes, are inhabited by deep shades of black, brown, and blue, creating a mysterious and almost intimate atmosphere. The empty space at the center of the piece—a place where nothing is written—breaks the continuity of the books and invites the viewer to question what might or should be there, what is missing.
Through this visual rupture, the artist invites us to explore themes of absence, the unfinished, and the ungraspable, while reminding us of the silent power of objects that, though invisible, leave an indelible mark. L'Absence Écrite becomes an invitation to reflect on what is unsaid, and on the impact of what is missing in our understanding of the world.
