Breakaways series
Anne Jallais' paintings often speak of territory, as suggested by the very titles of the series: Bends in 2010, Slips in 2010, Garden of Disorders in 2011, Collisions in 2011 or Free Zone in 2013.
The Dominique Bagouet Cultural Space decided to show the most recent and unreleased work of the artist, Turbulences, extendable landscapes. She writes of them: Just like the ocean movements, the gestures paint the turnarounds and the boundary forces following each other with softness and violence, in search of a lucid vision from the "top of the wave". My paintings architect themselves as territories subject to rebounds, overhangs and collisions. Mineral or metallic angers are followed by lighter breakaways; veils are lifted, breath is released. The canvasses full of frictions allude to Anne Jallais' taste for some of surrealism’s lessons.

" What is the malleability of chaos ? Is it a soft shape, as the chinese Houn-T’oun (Tchouang Tseu) or a tempestuous, unpredictable, infinitely expandable form ? ".

Opacity and transparency combine as if crossing blankets of fog, vision stops, starting again with scraps of images, more or less expected.
The distance between the eye and these images varies, more or less big for a vision that is more or less sharp, and triggers an adaptibility of the eye - or of the mental – which can be compared to the effects experienced during the mirage phenomenon.
Repeating the recognition act, the territory and painting field investigation, until the path becomes visible, and then rinsing the surface, the distance travelled as if to reveal the colour of the journey more clearly.
