Metamorphose, ink and acrylic on rice paper, 2024​
​
Unchained.Art Gallery proudly presents Tales in Ink, the second solo exhibition in Austin, TX by Juliette Lepage Boisdron, a multidisciplinary artist who is known for her poetic and thought-provoking aesthetic universe. Her creations blend extensive cultural influences with a deeply personal artistic vision.
This exhibition highlights Boisdron’s evolution and latest works, bringing together a complex narrative, playful yet profound, through mystical and majestic women, caring insects, large expressive eyes, exuberant plants, and plenty of animals all coexisting in harmony.
Rendered in Chinese and Indian ink on Xuanzhi rice paper, occasionally acrylic and delicate stitching, this body of work is a continuation of Boisdron’s exploration of the role of women and the fragility of our environment. She speaks to courage, vulnerability, and power. At first glance, her scenes may seem simple and playful, yet they resonate with deeper feminist and ecological themes. The relationships her characters share—with each other and their own emotions—unfold in intricate, layered narratives that examine societal norms while evoking maternal, familial, and intergenerational relationships.
Free from academic constraints, the artist’s instinctive and visionary approach is rooted in creativity and emotional spontaneity. Her works alternate between figurative, subtly raw compositions and abstract, organic creations, each infused with a persistent, radiant energy.
Her complex work, free of all concessions, confronts us with the emotions of our human condition, our relationship with others and with the universe that surrounds us.
