I’ll Be Your Mirror

By associating seemingly opposed visions- in the same way as a Baudelairian correspondence or a synesthesia -the artist cracks open meaning, she multiplies it. And allows the viewer to find his or her own troubling reflection, to associate with it a deep emotional state, a secret shape, an intimate hue. Thus, each glance will find its unique and singular counterpart. Like a bit of one’s mental life, one’s existence within - to use an expression by Michaux which Audrey Guttman is fond of - and which reveals itself in her work. - Excerpt from the text by Boris Bergmann
