Cricorps's "luxure et envie" features a figure painted with what looks like digital tools and a lot of attitude. It's a dance between line and color; the palette, with its oranges, greens, and browns, feels both earthy and a little uneasy. Look at the figure's contours – how they're defined with these bold, dark lines. It's not about blending or subtlety; it's about laying it all bare, the process included. The space feels shallow, almost compressed, and the money floating around her head makes me think of Dana Schutz's messy, uncomfortable narratives. The flatness of the image and the way the forms are outlined remind me of early 20th-century expressionists, yet it's got a contemporary digital twist. It’s like a painterly conversation happening across time, where the rules are always up for grabs. Ultimately, it is an image that leaves a lasting impression.
