Description :This powerful and abstract work by Henri Michaux, dated 1975, fully embodies his research on the unconscious, inner movement and altered states of perception. Carried out at theIndian ink and acrylic on paper, this untitled piece illustrates his unique visual language, situated between automatic writing, cosmic calligraphy and gestural energy.

The black, scratched, springing shapes cross the paper like mental pulses, rhythmic and unpredictable. The splashes and layers of wash create a vibrating matter, oscillating between density and transparency, chaos and silence.

Artwork unique, this composition bears witness to the intimate link between writing and painting in Michaux, at the crossroads ofvisual art, poetry and psychic explorationIt is very representative of his late period, marked by a liberated gesture and a total immersion in the material.
