This artistic movement, which she decided to name (a word she invented, protected to share it), out of strong self-mockery, a friendly wink at the word "déjà vu" and gentle teasing of herself and others, honors the needs of the living. It pursues this desire to make the invisible visible, to bring comfort to oneself, to dare innocence, to put words to the untouchable and to unburden Art.
It is this universal feeling that, with humor, binds us together and brings us closer despite our differences and nuances.
Shaped by words and symbols that seem familiar, yet without ever having taken the time to honor our inner
this movement was created and named to honor what we all do without ever... without ever having dared to put a name to it.
To dare.
The artist and author proposed a word to describe a sensibility… one that has run through the history of art since time immemorial. Beyond styles, techniques, movements, or eras, whenever a work seeks to bring people together, to raise awareness, to celebrate brotherhood, sisterhood, and nuance, it resonates with the spirit of Déjà-vuism Art. PEACE. A universal aspiration that has always accompanied artists, regardless of their artistic language or era.
Inès TheBroithers’s seeks to send echoes and rays of light to other homes, to the other beacons that we are.
calm and solid coherence
To all the artists who, both yesterday and today, stand up for peace... thank you.
Artistic trend
Aura, song, painting, language, poetry, and symbols.
One day, her ten-year-old niece, Tanya, pointed to one of her paintings and said, “Auntie, this is both street art and chic.”
Déjà-vuism Art
Déjà-vuism Art is the artistic language developed by Inès Arab, founder of TheBroithers's®. It does not seek to belong to any existing school of art. It was born out of years of research, writing, drawing, and observing the world. Déjà-vuism Art brings together painting, handwritten text, symbols, materials, and visual poetry to create works that can be viewed, read, and experienced. Each canvas functions as a door. One can enter it through a color, a word, a texture, a memory, a symbol, or an emotion.
Interpretation remains open-ended. The goal is not to provide a single answer, but to open up multiple ways of reading the text.
Toward...
Peace.
Resonances
Over the years, visitors, collectors, and art lovers have drawn various parallels with artists such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, Cy Twombly, Zao Wou-Ki, Pierre Soulages, Mark Rothko, Nicolas de Staël, José Parlá, and Banksy. These parallels do not constitute a lineage, a claimed influence, or a hierarchical comparison. They simply reflect the associations that certain people have perceived when viewing TheBroithers’s works. Every artist contributes their own unique contribution to art history. TheBroithers’s mission is to make their own contribution.
...Jean-Michel Basquiat
Some visitors were drawn to the energy of the brushstrokes, the layering of materials, the symbols, and the multiple levels of interpretation that may evoke certain aspects of his world.
Cy Twombly
Others mentioned gestural writing, the traces left by the hand, and the dialogue between text and painting.
Zao Wou-Ki
Some observers have noted a common thread in the pursuit of poetic abstraction, an inner spirit, and a presence that transcends mere representation.
Mark Rothko
Still others have described it as a form of painting that seeks above all to evoke an emotion, create an atmosphere, and provide a moment of contemplation.
Pierre Soulages
Some visitors also commented on the texture, contrasts, and light revealed by the painting.
Nicolas de Staël
A few people recognized a shared sensitivity to color, texture, and a style of painting that allows emotion to shine through.
José Parlá
The interplay between writing, textures, and visual memory at times brought to mind certain aspects of his work.
Banksy
Finally, some were moved by the humanistic dimension of the works their desire to speak of peace, brotherhood, resilience, and our ability to live together.
Gaston Chaissac
Some visitors also mentioned Gaston Chaissac. His free, spontaneous, and deeply human world where writing interacts with drawing and painting may echo certain aspects of TheBroithers’s approach. Many children are naturally drawn to the small characters in Inès Arab’s works a connection that, to some observers, evokes Chaissac’s simple and universal poetry. Both a writer and a painter, he also embodies this convergence of words and images that runs through Déjà-vuism Art.
Wassily Kandinsky
Some visitors have noted a connection to Wassily Kandinsky in the prominence given to color, form, and the spiritual dimension of the work. Like Kandinsky, Inès Arab is a synesthete. This sensory experience naturally fuels the connections between words, colors, sounds, forms, and emotions that make up her artistic language, though it does not, on its own, define her artistic approach.
I am Nuance
Inès Arab is a French contemporary visual artist, founder of TheBroithers's®, and creator of Déjà-vuism Art. Déjà-vuism Art is an artistic language born of years of research, writing, drawing, and observing the world. It brings together painting, handwritten text, visual poetry, symbols, materials, and emotions to create works that can be viewed, read, and experienced. Each canvas is an invitation to slow down, to feel, and to construct one’s own interpretation.
A free approach
Déjà-vuism Art does not seek to belong to any existing school. It engages freely with various sensibilities within contemporary art. One can perceive echoes of abstraction, through the space left to the imagination; of conceptual art, where language becomes an artistic medium; of expressionism, through the spontaneity of the gesture and emotional intensity; with primitive art, through essential and universal symbols; and sometimes even with a street-chic sensibility, where urban energy meets a quest for elegance and poetry. But Déjà-vuism Art cannot be reduced to any of these approaches. Above all, it seeks to create a sensitive language in which painting, words, symbols, colors, and emotions interact freely. As a synesthete, Inès Arab naturally draws on correspondences between words, colors, shapes, sounds, and emotions to fuel her work. Her ambition is not to confine the viewer’s gaze to a single definition, but to open up multiple paths of interpretation.
Abstract art, modern art, Art and messages of peace
A sweet treat with a cause
A quest for peace
I'll leave it open to interpretation.
