Throughout Clément DENIS’s work there is an oscillation between two- dimensional surface and three-dimensional corporeality. Images are embraced in the round as visceral and bodily, the superimpositions are legion, and the faces merge with each other. But mostly it is the huge scene reminiscent inevitably of Matisse’s ‘The Dance’ vis-a-vis Picasso’s ‘Les Demoiselles d'Avignon’ - that captures and disturbes the viewer.
