The recent work of Michèle Assal is a series of paintings inspired by string theory. The essential idea is that nature is fundamentaly composed of miniscule cords of energy whose different vibrational modes are the basis of all activity in the universe. This harmoniously joins the laws of the infinitely big and the infinitely small into one theory. Consequently, six new dimensions can be discovered in addition to those we already know: space and time.

A single string serves as the leitmotif of Michèle Assal’s work. From this idea, she envisioned her paintings as a series of infinite spaces and textures that evolve in dimensionless time. Similar work with modules shows how space can manipulate an image; because it appears deformed, the artist can allow herself to be surprised by the different possibilities of her work.

These parallel worlds that simultaneously exist in different temporalities give the artist a ubiquitous talent. Always in motion, the paintings have a life of their own.
