Adriane Morard takes interest in altered ways of operating in physical and social realities. Exploring materials and their subjectivity, her most recent works emphasise on gold and its representations. 

Focusing on gold as a universal embodiment of the supreme, she playfully expose the preciosity of the material, unfolding frictions and asymmetries that echo the system in which it operates.

Working with a XVIth Century water-based gold leafing technique traditionally used in the making of icons, she traces parallels between the archaism of the medium and the stratifications of the subtexts constituting contemporary narratives.

The body of work of Adriane Morard aims to open liminal spaces which are not limited to the internal consistency of the dominant paradigm.
