The artistic life of Lise Tremblay Thaychi
Thaychi is a spiritual name meaning “to transmit or to transfer light”.
The artistic process of L.T Thaychi is based on the inner perception of her personal world, which in opposition to the real world is ethereal, filled with finesse, softness and lightness thus expressing another reality.
Creation has always been part of L.T Thaychi! Any object shape or colour can be the starting point of a new artistic creation.
“I look for brilliancy, light and marvel in the web of raw beauty. I organise it to find the geometry that conveys the essence that sprouts in my inner world. The themes appear one by one through the motions and space of an unknown universe. All of this constitutes the magic moment outside of time when everything comes together”.
Painter and sculptor, her drive is the relentless discovery of her deep spiritual being.The wonderful metaphysics of her artistic creation is an alchemy based on a quest for the light and the pure energy within shapes, aesthetics unfolding naturally together with her feelings and the beauty she senses.Colours are seen as the bearers of light and L.T.Thaychi uses a palette which reaches into the microcosm of life and projects the viewer towards the cosmic dimension of the human being.Her art work has a stunning beauty, it is a poetry that only the inner eye can fully capture.
