Themes :

"Her favorite subject remains roofs which are pretext to beautiful variations of ocher and red when these roofs are from Provence or Venice. MC is, primarily a colorist. Her roofs, from here ans elsewhere, sometimes, border on canvas abstraction. They also serve, by their appropriate interweaving, to organize the space of the picture and to carpenter the composition.
She loves architectures often taken overhang. She deciphers the plans and perspectives with a color greed, without a priori, to capture the light.
