La Loba - 3
" Garrault breathes life into the decomposition of horses fallen to the ground. Nothing macabre here; rather, it is a dance ennobled by colour, something sacred, indeed. Like fire beneath the skeleton and the bones — a sacred fire. The sacred fire of a dance, perhaps pagan, yet sacred all the same. Life bursting from the tombs! A tangled weave of bones and colours, of vertebrae and verses, a poetry of trance and dance. A trance made thought.
[...]
These horses evoke for me a dance that is not macabre, but joyful and laughing, like a living and mysterious round dance. A landscape of bones. Beneath the dry skin of cracking oil paint, a smiling dance. And something like astonishment. "
