Inspiration: The octopus has a rich and versatile symbolism, crossing different cultures and artistic traditions. He embodies the cunning, adaptability and mystery of the deep sea. Thanks to its ability to change color and shape, the octopus symbolizes adaptability, fluidity, and resilience in the face of challenges. Considered one of the most intelligent marine animals, it represents strategy, creativity, and ingenuity. Living in the depths of the ocean, it is often associated with hidden forces, the unconscious, and the mysteries of the soul.
Corinne Tichadou weaves links between the past and the present. She paints the human and questions his relationship to the world: to love, to family, to his courage, to his destiny, to his place in society. Man has always been surrounded by doubts and fears rooted in the world around him. His characters echo memory, fragility, the strangeness of the soul, vulnerability, melancholy, intimacy and silence. It is a world of thought.
