In Society (En société)

"In Society (En société)" is a compelling example of Abstract and Expressionism art that reflects on the intricate world of Lyon’s historic silk industry, or the "Fabrique." The painting captures the vibrant chaos of the silk sector, illustrating the various stages—from raw silk spinning to pattern creation, weaving, finishing, and marketing—that define Lyon’s key players. Through bold brushstrokes and dynamic composition, the artist emphasizes the interconnectedness of these processes, offering a vivid visual narrative of the city’s rich textile heritage and the collective effort involved in producing and selling silk fabric.
