La maman disparue, 2010 A Mixed Technique, Expressionism, Painting
Corbisier’s La maman disparue offers a striking figurative portrayal of urban life through a mixed media composition of oil, pencil, and coal on canvas.
This figurative, mixed-media painting—crafted with oil, pencil, and coal on canvas—features two children standing still at a crosswalk, seemingly in pause, surrounded by a bustling street where adults rush by. Their mother, implied but missing, creates a void in the center of the scene, subtly emphasized by Corbisier’s choice of composition and partially unfinished central figure.
The artist’s delicate yet deliberate strokes contrast the striped tights and oversized coats of the children with a washed, muted urban palette, evoking a melancholic atmosphere. There's a tension between stillness and movement, between presence and absence, reflective of Corbisier’s expressive yet realist approach.
The cold, muted color scheme and the smooth flat texture of the canvas work harmoniously to deepen the sense of reflection and longing. The painting’s scale—110 × 141 cm—makes it an ideal piece for art galleries, hallways, offices, or intimate hotel spaces. La maman disparue is a poetic meditation on childhood, memory, and the subtle emotional voids of city life, inviting viewers into a personal yet universally relatable moment of disappearance.
