Collection: GALAE

Laetitia Garrigou, aka GALAE, explores urban landscapes in oil with a knife in her series "Urbénite," which blends figuration and abstraction. Her work highlights the interaction between light and matter, capturing the textures, reliefs, and vibrations that animate the city. Each canvas becomes an encounter between the visible and the invisible, the concrete and the imaginary, inviting the viewer to feel the city as much as to see it.

The artist pairs each work with a song, creating a unique dialogue between image and sound. This harmony between painting and music amplifies the emotional resonance of his paintings and accentuates the movement and depth of his compositions. GALAE layers colors and plays with materials to make the rhythm of urban life, the changing light, and the dynamics of spaces palpable.

His approach seeks to capture the moment, to transform the everyday into a sensory experience, where each glance becomes an immersion in a vibrant and poetic universe. The viewer is invited to explore the canvas through its textures, nuances and subtle contrasts, to perceive all its nuances and mysteries.
