The painted image consists for eighty percent of raging water, bordered at the top by a grey band of mist behind which a vague light seems to glow.

Het geschilderde beeld bestaat voor tachtig procent uit kolkend water, bovenaan afgeboord door een grijze mistsluier waar slechts een vage lichtstreep achter schuilgaat. Het is de zee zoals we die niet willen kennen: dreigend en onpeilbaar. De Cordier schildert het frontale natuurtafereel met grote precisie in verschillende tinten grijs, benadrukt door enkele witte toetsen driftend schuim. \u003cem\u003eMer Grosse\u003c/em\u003e is overweldigend en onheilspellend tegelijk; het toont de kunstenaar in zijn benarde situatie, omgeven door een noodlottige zee.\u0026nbsp;\u003cbr /\u003e\r\n\u003cbr /\u003e\r\nTekst: Hans Willemse\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eDans l\u0026rsquo;exposition\u0026nbsp;\u003cem\u003eSanguine/Bloedrood\u003c/em\u003e Thierry De Cordier est pr\u0026eacute;sent avec une \u0026oelig;uvre extr\u0026ecirc;mement f\u0026eacute;roce,\u0026nbsp;\u003cem\u003eMer Grosse\u003c/em\u003e\u0026nbsp;de 2011. \u0026nbsp;Le tableau peint est compos\u0026eacute; pour quatre-vingt pour cent d\u0026rsquo;eau tourbillonnante, d\u0026eacute;limit\u0026eacute; au-dessus avec un voile de brume gris, o\u0026ugrave; se cache un vague rayon de lumi\u0026egrave;re. \u0026nbsp;C\u0026rsquo;est la mer comme nous ne voulons pas la conna\u0026icirc;tre\u0026nbsp;: mena\u0026ccedil;ante et\u0026nbsp; \u0026eacute;pouvantable.
