The artwork features a striking sculptural composition against a minimalist white background. The central element is a wooden vessel with a curved, abstract shape that serves as a pedestal for a vibrant, feathered plume. The plume's warm, earthy tones and dramatic, jagged shapes create a striking visual contrast with the simple, geometric wooden form. The piece appears to explore themes of nature, balance, and the interplay between organic and man-made elements. The distinctive style and use of found objects suggest the artist's intention to challenge conventional notions of sculpture and elicit a contemplative response from the viewer. ...
Iseult Perrault creates fantastical landscapes that exist somewhere between fiction, memory, and ecological reflection. Working across painting and sculptural installations, she builds imaginary worlds using bright colors, organic forms, and surreal compositions that feel both playful and unsettling. Her visual environments invite viewers into dreamlike realms where nature is vibrant, uncanny, and full of narrative possibility. With roots in digital design and pictorial research, Perrault questions our relationship to nature and the impact of human perception—and misperception—on fragile ecosystems. Her work blends virtual and physical elements, merging botanical forms with geometric structures to evoke universes that feel familiar yet alien. Playful, poetic, and charged with symbolism, her art opens a space to reflect on climate, gaze, and the shifting landscape of experience. ...
Ballon Rouge began as a nomadic gallery in September of 2017. In our first two years we put up exhibitions in Istanbul, London, Los Angeles, Brussels, Sao Paulo, Paris, and New York. Each of the cities we visited was stewarded by a ‘collective member’ - a curator who introduced us to artists and to their respective city’s art scene. In March of 2019 we made Brussels our home city, inaugurating our permanent space. While we will continue to do shows abroad alongside our collective members, our primary location is now Brussels. Besides our own exhibitions, the space in Brussels sometimes hosts invited international galleries to show with us in exchange for a show of ours at theirs - a further continuation of our ethos of collaboration and collectivity. So far we have collaborated or will soon collaborate with Hannah Barry Gallery (London); Melange (Cologne); Galerist (Istanbul); Gallery Artbeat, (Tbilisi); the Pill (Istanbul); Pi Artworks (Istanbul, London); Vitrine (London, Basel). ...
