VERNISSAGE: PAUL CUPIDO - L'HEURE BLEUE

 

L’Heure Bleue – that fleeting hour between day and night, when the sky turns a luminous, infinite blue. Cupido is drawn to transitions – those spaces and moments between light and shadow, between body and nature, where everything is interconnected – as well as to the Japanese concept of mono no aware, a bittersweet emotional awareness of impermanence and the beauty and sadness that lie within that transience. His figures are quietly absorbed by the sea, enveloped in blossoms, or stand in juxtaposition with the moon. Thus the blue hour becomes a metaphor – a moment when intuition leads the way and nothing is fixed. It is a space of contemplation, softness, and vulnerability.
