Amelie Peace is a French artist based in London. Her practice is centred on the research of the Unspoken: a form of communication that exists before language, communicated through the body and understood without words. Manifesting through dreams, memory, instinct and the subconscious, the Unspoken reveals emotional and psychological experiences that resist verbal expression.

Drawing from queer literature, dreams and observations of the world around her, she develops a symbolic visual language through distorted figures and complex narratives. Her paintings investigate the coexistence of opposing states—fear and liberation, intimacy and isolation, tenderness and violence, control and surrender, the human and the animal, dream and reality—not as binaries, but as simultaneous conditions of human experience.

Rather than asking to be decoded, the paintings invite the viewer to engage with the Unspoken through feeling, creating images that are experienced before they are understood.

“I empty my mind, I place before it the still recent taste of this first mouthful, and I feel something trembling in me, at a profound depth, something that has been dislodged and wants to rise up, something that might be unanchored; I don’t know what it is, but it climbs up slowly; I feel the resistance, hear the murmur of the distances being traversed.” ~ Marcel Proust

Printmaking is just like a puzzle, it is a calculated, reversed, complex, it has many pathways and guidlines to follow. Like this Proust quote the artist connects to printmaking unlike any other medium. Printing makes it’s own, it is addictive and enchanting.  As a medium it demands precision and adherence to defined guides. For Peace, printmaking is just another way of exploring the art of gesture, the process of storytelling.
