François Marcadon


  • Le Neuf Gallery 690 Chaussée de Waterloo 1180 Brussels Belgium (map)

François Marcadon, who is also a father, worked for the first time with his 7-year-old daughter Mila to create four-handed drawings, giving free rein to their respective imaginations. The use of cuttlefish ink instead of the usual Indian ink is explained by the forty-something artist's growing interest in organic and natural materials. But it was the two of them who explored the theme of the gaze, of what is shown/hidden. It's a nod to the survival technique of the cuttlefish, which uses this ink to disorientate a potential predator so that it can flee.
