Elodie Seguin: Look Loop – PEAC Museum | 15.09.2024-16.02.2025

Editors’ Choice

From 15 September 2024, the PEAC Museum will present the first comprehensive institutional solo exhibition of French artist Elodie Seguin (*1984 in Paris, lives and works there) in Germany. Under the title Elodie Seguin. Look Loop, the versatile and cross-genre work of the artist will be presented. Seguin’s artistic practice plays with the vocabulary of abstract painting and sculpture without being categorised in either genre. In her abstract-geometric wall works, reliefs, objects and (immersive) spatial installations, Seguin explores the interplay of colours, the spatial effect of contrasts and the impact of light and transparency. The artist systematically differentiates between the relationship between form and colour and changes the appearance of the colours by superimposing them.

In her works, the artist refers directly to the architectural characteristics and conditions of the exhibition spaces. With Elodie Seguin. Look Loop is the first exhibition in the PEAC Museum’s history to be created exclusively on site.
