Dialogue Miriam Maes with James Ensor.
Title artwork James Ensor: 'A nice corner at home' 1938Title artwork Miriam Maes: 'James ... I'll meet you in the Blue Room ...' 2017
The painting 'James ... I'll meet you in the Blue Room ...' 2017, has a profound connection with the work of James Ensor, 'A beautiful corner in my home' 1938.
I have enlarged a detail of the typical wallpaper in the Ensor House.
The characters are at their Parade, and slowly step into the 'Blue Salon', and together form a warm pink orange 'Ensor Energy'.
A part of the piano with the 'used up' keys, together with the warm white sand of Ostend, take with them the last musical composition from the great Master ...
'La Gamme d'Amour' is not far away.
