Noémie

Creator: Michel Degand
Offered by: Boccara Gallery

Description
Edition 1/6
Manufactured by Atelier Pinton
Provenance: Private French Collection

Michel Degand's tapestry Noémie (1984) exemplifies his abstract artistry, characterized by dynamic compositions and a vibrant color palette. Measuring 59 x 49 inches (151 × 125 cm), this piece is edition 1/6 and was meticulously woven by the renowned Atelier Pinton in Aubusson, France—a workshop with which Degand created over 250 tapestries. A striking feature of Noémie is the use of silver metal threads around the eye motif, adding a luminous, reflective quality that enhances the work’s emotional intensity. The tapestry reflects Degand’s exploration of fragmentation and reassembly, suggesting a deep engagement with the complexities of perception and form. Now part of the Modern Masters Tapestries collection, Noémie stands as a luminous example of Degand’s enduring legacy in 20th-century tapestry and the continued relevance of the woven medium in modern art.
