The paintings of Savignac must not be approached with the idea that one must understand something, understand why such a form is like it is and not otherwise, why it is inserted inside another. Let us allow them simply to appear to us in all their complexity because they speak to us of themselves. Let us dive into their restrained violence, in their rythmic dance, into these sustained and concentrated colours. In this way, émotions can be born and reponses made to this 'unknown'. The picture spaces are both open and closed, animated or frozen, exact but nevertheless réceptive to diverse interprétation, and also act as stimuli. Like this work where a thousand eyes seem to observe us through the chaos, like this other one where a face cut in half appears from the conjonction of two shapes, like this use of pure white which brings a breathing space, which integrates the empty and the full.
