The work of Mireille Robbe is a research on herself through her suitcase in Maurice Van Saene’s painting workshop in Saint Luc - Brussels, reading, intuition, ...
In 2012, one of her works of the V.I.T.R.I.O.L. series sent her on the path of hidden symbols, which led her to Alchemy (and C.G. Jung) or, in simple terms, to the philosophy of nature, of the universe. An inexhaustible source of information and inspiration.
She integrates this symbolism and philosophy only in her way of thinking and not in the first visual layer of her works.
Her concepts are interconnected, even if they look different.This visual difference is partly explainable by the fact that the chosen medium is a function of the concept and not vice versa.
The common thread in her work is to show the ingenuity of nature, allow us to reflect about details that escape us because of their so-called obviousness.
Mireille Robbe
Born in 1962, Brussels. Lives and works in Louvain (Belgium).
