« he beats me with hope » is a series of watercolor drawings representing the human heart and the respiratory and blood flows it generates.
Inspired by personal or friendly experiences, Maud Louvrier Clerc evokes with this series the strength of our vital organ that despite our sorrows, our failures or abuse continues to beat.
Love, sickness, violence. Broken heart, heartbeat, heartbeat that beats in spite of everything and keeps us alive. As the drumming for the shaman, “he beats me with hope” evokes both the source and the energy of hope.
