Our painting appears on page 75 with the following note:
"Painting is often an approach to nudity, to unveiling, but Pierre Lachkar does not give in to this generalization.
The nudity in his work could appear with the blood of trees. A suggestion of a never-ending unveiling.
These young naked women resemble figurines, and their nudity is covered by a powerful surrounding bricolage: the sea, boats, a bedroom, a fountain, a golf club, a bicycle, etc.
The one who appears the most naked, the white one, veils her gaze, calling for our modesty.
