Françoise Hoffmann is an artist in felt making as well as a photographer. Pixels or pigments, silk or wool fibers, our gaze looses itself within the image of a reality transformed by its own tactile dimension. The graphic sharpness of her urban scenes seems to float in a magic way, on these muslin hangings, as well as the blurred appearance of the moving camera lens materializes itself on these felt pictures with vibrating patches of colors. By combining the oldest domestic use material with the contemporary eye of photography and numeric print, Françoise Hoffmann questions the boundaries between art and craftsmanship.
