With Corde à linge 2 , Kathleen Roby, a contemporary abstract painter, explores the memory of a moment suspended in the streets of Old Quebec: a walk with her mother under clotheslines animated by colorful clothes fluttering in the wind.

 This work is part of a series on paper inspired by this luminous and joyful memory. In a deliberately minimalist style, it favors dynamic lines, subtle textures, and bold colors. The challenge of restraint, so characteristic of minimalist painting, is met with finesse.

 The balance between spontaneity of gesture and clarity of composition reflects a sensitive lightness, tinged with nostalgia.
