Claire Tabouret Evokes the Sensation of Touch in New Tapestry

Five years on from her Swimmer portrait, French painter Claire Tabouret is reuniting with London-based creative studio Avant Arte to release a new limited edition tapestry. Paysage d’Intérieur (printemps) embarks on Tabouret's Fluff paintings, weaving together a verdant landscape that pays homage to Post-Impressionism, from Paul Cézanne to Vincent van Gogh.

Born in Marseille and based in Los Angeles, Tabouret is well-known for her intimate portraits of youth, playing on themes related to memory and nostalgia, as well as vulnerability and innocence, emblematic of her moody compositions that allude to the refugee crisis in the Mediterranean. Tabouret has shown a meteoric rise within art circles over the past decade, showcasing solo shows across the globe and currently represented by heavyweight galleries Perrotin, Almine Rech and Xavier Hufkens.

Tabouret began her Fluff series in 2022, marking a departure from her figurative studies in place of more abstract landscape paintings that evoke a sensorial dialogue within the viewer. Underscoring the series is the idea that materials can unlock hidden memories, as well as prompt reflection on humanity's unnerving desire for comfort, amidst the fleeting tide of our emotions.

Limited to an edition of 50, Paysage d’Intérieur (printemps) is created with 411,158 stitches, embroidered in 20 colors on forest green velvet, that is mounted on a bespoke, unglazed oak wooden frame. Measuring 21 x 14 x 2 inches, the tapestry comes signed and numbered by the artist with a certificate of authenticity for $4,319 USD (framed). Prospective buyers have to enter a draw that ends on Wednesday, December 11 at 9am ET.
