The subjects of painting are found in small, simple, easy things. As stated by Antoni Tàpies, “painting can be everything. It can be a solar clarity in the midst of a breath of wind. It can be a sweet air of dawn, or a chant in the open blue or yellow sky. It may be who we are, today, now and forever”.

In the work of Julie Sassón there is light, passion, strength; freedom is perceived in her painting, a multifaceted look. Her paintings exhibit warmth, emotion, bliss; they have their own signic resonance; the artist —with the mastery of space, composition, color— internalizes into the depths to give them connotations beyond the obvious. Reality takes other levels, where the light, the hollows, the evanescence records tracks that transcend memory, which have their foundation in intuition, in metaphysics.

The set of paintings grouped in Revelations is the result of inherited knowledge and craft of the highest painting tradition by which the artist creates a single syntax that comes from her feelings. Evocations of minimalism, of Japanese impressionism dialogue with nature recreated by Sassón, who coheres a speech filled with color, harmony, moving metaphors.
