Amélie Bernard is a visual artist, living and working in Paris. She is part of the Pous Maniefsto artist incubator.
The processes of construction and physical or psychological reconstructions are omnipresent notions in the work of Amélie Bernard, inspired by the imagery of ruins, she works on the reduction of forms, moving matter and constant flows. evolution.
It questions the legitimacy of what remains, of what persists despite everything. Attempting to formally transpose our bodily memory, encapsulating moments doomed to disappear, the artist thus develops a paradoxical relationship to the present time that she tries to archive by all means.
Amélie Bernard's works relate the memory upheavals of our society with those of the body, the mind seeking to understand the deep content of the state it arouses. The loss of material that characterizes the remains visually leaves room only for what remains, forcing us to confront ourselves with lack and absence.
Renewing our memorial apprehension of materials and remains in a work that highlights small gaps, indistinct states, the scattering of signs, Amélie Bernard presents us with a world decorrelated from our reality in which the ruins become the projection of a possible future or a now bygone reality that holds all the promises of change.
