Flore Nové-Josserand

Flore Nove-Josserand's practice embraces painting, sculpture and installations. It is concerned with notions of pictorial composition and the inter-relationship of one decorative surface to another. Flore Nove-Josserand draws on the concentrated vocabulary of formalist movements and that of the decorative arts: wallpaper motifs, textiles, and so forth, to create aesthetic playgrounds in which abstract forms and painterly marks can perform.
