MONTPELLIER.- This winter, the Frac Sud – Cité de l'art contemporain in Montpellier, France, invites visitors to delve into the captivating world of artist Éléonore False. "The Warp Thread," a major solo exhibition opening this February, offers an unprecedented look at False's diverse and thought-provoking body of work, spanning a decade of creative exploration.

False, with her background in both fine arts and textile design, has developed a unique artistic language that seamlessly blends different mediums and techniques. Her works, encompassing textiles, collages, and sculptures, invite us to question the very nature of images, their multiple meanings, and their ability to reflect the complex world around us.

The exhibition's title, "The Warp Thread," is a nod to False's deep connection to textiles. Just as warp and weft threads intertwine to create a rich and textured fabric, False's art weaves together seemingly disparate elements, creating a tapestry of visual and conceptual connections.

Within the Frac Sud's distinctive architectural space, designed by renowned architect Kengo Kuma, False's works will engage in a dynamic dialogue. Seven distinct series will be on display, including new creations inspired by the museum's collection.

During her time as a guest researcher at Frac Sud in 2023, False was drawn to the meticulous care with which the museum preserved even the most fragile historical objects. This fascination with the act of preservation and the stories embedded within objects led to new works, including tapestries, sculptures, and photographic prints.

One particular piece, a 16th-century sculpture known as "Christ on the Cold Stone," captured False's imagination. Despite its fragmented state, with only a torso, head, and legs remaining, the sculpture sparked a reflection on the representation of the human body, the endurance of trauma, and the power of touch and care in the healing process. False's response to this historical artifact is a new sculpture that both supports and reinterprets the surviving fragments, creating a poignant conversation across time.

"The Warp Thread" promises to be a multisensory experience, inviting viewers to encounter False's art on multiple levels. Large-scale photographic prints, based on her research into the doll collection of Gisèle Tissier-Grandpierre at the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco, will be displayed alongside intricate textile works and sculptures that play with the scale of the human body.

False's artistic process is a fascinating blend of meticulous observation and creative transformation. She collects, photographs, scans, prints, and assembles, weaving together images and objects to create new layers of meaning. Her works resist easy categorization, challenging us to look beyond the surface and question our assumptions about what we see and know.

By blurring the boundaries between decorative arts and fine arts, ornament and creative gesture, False's work disrupts traditional hierarchies and invites a "revolution of the gaze." She encourages us to embrace the complexity and ambiguity of the world, to see beyond stereotypes and appreciate the richness of diverse perspectives.

"The Warp Thread" is not just an exhibition; it's an invitation to engage with False's unique artistic vision and to embark on a journey of discovery. It's a chance to experience the power of art to transform, to challenge, and to inspire. Don't miss this opportunity to explore the fascinating world of Éléonore False at Frac Sud this winter.
