# Pique-nique au bord du lac

A picnic at the water's edge. Few things are more specific in their pleasure: the particular combination of food and open air and the sound of water nearby, the slightly informal happiness of sitting on the ground with people you like. Corcelle captures that quality here, the colors warm and social, the composition loose and full of small incidents of mark and texture that feel like overheard conversation.

Her fascination with found objects and the everyday made beautiful is central to this work. Nothing in it is grand, but everything in it is good, which is the whole point of the best picnics.
