For her second solo show in Paris with DUMONTEIL Contemporary in its new 300m² space, artist Tess DUMON seeks to explore the theme of ‘invisible links’. Concept which establishes a relationship between concrete or abstract things, in particular logical or hidden dependence: A cause and effect link between two events. The artist wants us to think about the relationship that humans maintain with Nature, their origin, their dependence, their connections.
Through the exploration of the theme of the four elements, Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Tess gives us leads to explore these ‘invisible links’. In this exhibition, the artist multiplies the mediums and techniques, painting, drawing, sculpture, metal, paper, ceramics, in a kind of organic fusion. In this way the artist deepens these links which coexist all around us. It is therefore through these allegories of fertility, and the appearance of life that the artist questions us about the vital rooting to Nature.











Tess Dumon’s work evolves on different mediums that include drawing, sculpture, animation, and installations. She aims to transform the tragic and dramatic history of the life around her into the hints concealing in her works through mythical metaphors and a personal dream world. Tess Dumon tries to place the audience in the heart of her work to experience the atmosphere which can be so powerful that people forget the mundane world.
