For our Billboard Series, Lucile Desamory created a gouache-painted poster of her new television series and feature film De Wervelende Wirwar, on which all the story’s characters are introduced. For this special artlead series, Desamory deconstructs the large film poster. In this series of 13 gouaches, the characters depicted on the billboard each receive their own setting and context. The painted portraits are based on film stills, and, as a result, subtitles sometimes partially appear in the image. These gouaches based on film-stills form a new body of work within Desamory’s practice and are also the focus of her upcoming solo exhibition at Ellen de Bruijne Projects in Amsterdam later this fall.
