To read, to escape, to imagine. Lying in crumpled sheets, she reads as one travels: without leaving the bed, yet fully embarked. Her red sweater, her open book, the hint of a smile. Around her, objects remain — a shelf of beloved books, an empty chair, folded jeans — like echoes of a paused world, while hers expands. The scene is simple, yet everything unfolds within: pleasure, awakening, absence from the world, and interior freedom.

Artistic approach
With LA LECTRICE, I continue my exploration of intimacy and ordinary postures revealed by painting. Camille, once again muse and presence, embodies the quiet power of reading — one that transports, transforms, and momentarily removes. The large canvas captures the suspended moment of her reading. The two smaller ones, as counterpoints, narrate the surroundings — what she leaves behind to go elsewhere: a shelf of Proust, an empty chair, a forgotten pair of jeans. This triptych is a tribute to the act of reading as a movement of both body and mind — a journey inward.

A suspended moment, almost accidental. The young woman, deeply engrossed in her book, lets her body follow the emotion stirring within her. Her pajama top slips open, revealing the pure spontaneity of the instant — natural, unposed, unfiltered. Among light sheets and open pages, astonishment lingers softly in the air.

Artistic approach
With INTERRUPTED READING, I aimed to capture the luminous fragility of a surprised moment. The relaxed posture, the open expression, the folds of fabric — they all tell the story as much as her gaze does. The painting lingers on the vibration of the instant: between distraction and surrender, between reading and the body. The floral background enhances the delicate tension between her inner world and the soft touch of the outer one. It is a vivid, intimate, and sincere scene.
