So I Want To Live In A Wooden House

By Lucie Timonier
February 16–20, 2023

“Colors. They carry so many emotions, different to us all. In this body of work, these hues are the window to a place comforting and true. A place where there is no nonsense, no influence or judgment but just harmony from within, sometimes challenging but always real. My wooden house, a place expressed through color.

All works are made from deadstock cotton/linen fabrics and are processed with natural dyes (walnut, gallo tannin, chlorophyllin, madder, cutch, logwood) through a non-toxic screen printing practice.”
