About the artwork

This canvas features a series of blue strokes sliding vertically in clusters, forming the feathers of a pigeon. Exhibited in October 2020 at the PDP Gallery in Paris as part of the exhibition Un détail devenu sujet, this work highlights the often overlooked beauty of these urban birds through the meticulous detail of their feathers. Through these details, this series contributes to Adèle Renault's move towards abstract art. Attracted to depicting the neglected subjects of the street, she has gradually made pigeons and the homeless the theme of her work. As a street artist, these birds, which she had the opportunity to study closely while creating her urban graffiti, became a means of representing urban life on canvas and in galleries. Identifying herself as a "carrier pigeon", she fuses urban and abstract art in this canvas.

Expert opinion

Participating in the artist's transition to abstraction, this small canvas captures the full breadth of his work in urban space, using his characteristic pigeon feather details.

About the artist

Born in Belgium in 1988, Adèle Renault is a painter who lives and works on five continents. Having studied graphic arts, painting, urban art, design and new media on her travels, she joined the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, graduating in 2010. Her first solo show took place at White Walls in San Francisco (USA), marking the start of a series of exhibitions in galleries around the world, including Amsterdam, Los Angeles, Miami and Paris. As a street artist, her work also extends to walls. She notably created a fresco at the BNP Paribas Real Estates headquarters in Paris (France) in 2018, at the Lodi Art District in New Delhi (India) in 2019 or more recently within the city of Ghent (Belgium) in 2022.

“If you look closely, you'll notice that the pigeons come in a variety of colors. [...] I'd been dreaming of doing abstract art for a long time, but I didn't know how to go about it.”
