GALERIE CHLOE SALGADO
Margaux Meyer , France
Sous la régulation du cœur
Belly, Margaux Meyer, huile sur toile, 27 x 35 cm, 2022 - GALERIE CHLOE SALGADO.
Margaux Meyer, born in 1998 in Suresnes, graduated from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris in 2022, from Tim Eitel’s studio. After several group exhibitions in Paris and Milan, she is now presenting her first solo exhibition: “Sous la régulation du cœur”.
With this exhibition, the artist places the body, and its physiological and metaphysical reactions, at the centre of her work. She is interested in the tensions in behaviors of love and desire, and in the both tactile and invisible space between two people who are longing for each other. She is also concerned with the belly, cradle of life and of the future, and with the intestines, emotional and instinctive brain.
Her strokes and rhythm are carried by dynamic and tender gestures, and colors, sometimes blurred, which vibrate and fade away. They thus also evoke movements of energy, and changes of state, both physical and emotional.
“There is something in my work that is both sensual and tender like a kiss, but also uncomfortable like a pebble, which irritates and scratches the surface of the eye.” Margaux Meyer
The exhibition is accompanied by a text by the filmmaker, journalist and PhD candidate Ysé Sorel.
In November 2023, Margaux Meyer will present a new solo exhibition at the art centre Le POCTB in Orléans, with the support of the CNAP.
Exhibition from May 06 to June 10, 2023.

The gallery
Inaugurated in October 2018, GALERIE CHLOE SALGADO is a contemporary art gallery in Paris representing emerging international artists.
As the first line of defense and support for the artists it represents, the gallery works hand in hand with them, giving them as much freedom as possible to express their potential and creativity.
Finally, the gallery aims to break with the notion of a gallery as an elitist space proposing instead a place of support, discovery and sharing, while also encouraging new generations of collectors and art enthusiasts.
