Arlette Delevallee is playing not only with words, but colors and forms using recycled cardbox to give birth to all kind of personages.
This is witty , funny but also adresses situations or social concerns that are not so funny.
A catalogue with an essay by the critic John Austin is available free of charge and contains text in French and English

Arlette Delevallée is both a painter and a graphic artist. This artist who in the 70s joined the Solstice group, still harbors the same revolts. She fights against the various human conditionings (in French, the word for packaging is the same as conditioning). Thus, using this play on word, she integrates recycled packaging into her creations. Thermoforming and various packaging are “recycled” until her work is completed. Arlette Delevallée isn’t only about graphic art but also about texts, inseparable from each work.
Arlette Delevallée tells us “The titles I give my works are that many more clues about the message I’d like to convey. Primarily, it is a game I like to play with the spectator.”
