Opera Ballet by Francois Michel Beausoleil

Oil on wood panel, cover in resin with glitter and Swarovski crystals

This painting is from my series that I called, The Holographic Universe, a series about the Human Experience. opera Ballet is an oil painting on wood panel cover in resin, Swarovski Crystals and a special glitter that does not show at a certain distance and shimmer in different ways during the day. Here is the shadows of Paris trees and of a ballet Dancer in front of the sculpture grouping by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux. this is a group composition centered on the spirit of the Dance, brandishing a tambourine. The androgyny derived from the incorporation of the feminine traits of Carpeaux's first project – a sculpture of Helene Van Donning, Princess Racovitza – and the male body of the carpenter Sébastien Visat, who worked for Carpeaux. All of this in front of the opera Garnier in Paris.
