Flux

Flux takes its name from the state of constant change; nothing fixed, nothing settled, everything in motion.

In physics and philosophy, flux describes a world that is never still, where forms dissolve and re-emerge, and identity is something continuously negotiated rather than possessed.

That is the essence of this work:

how movement can be a form of truth,

how instability can be a kind of honesty,

how the self, like water or light, is always becoming something else.

In Flux, the boundaries are deliberately uncertain.

It reflects the moment where control softens into surrender, and where transformation is not a disruption, but the natural rhythm of existence.

Auguste Lu invites you to explore her latest Japan-based collection, where each piece explores the dualities of human existence and offers art as a tool for self-improvement.

Inspired by her nomadic journey of self-discovery, each piece reflects the tension and harmony that shape personal growth.
By engaging with these works, you contribute to the celebration of human complexity, enriching the dialogue between art and life .

Acrylics, charcoal, chalk, pigments on canvas

Auguste incorporates generous amounts of water, blending inks and acrylics to guide the natural flow of the composition. As the water slowly evaporates, she anchors the work with layers of chalk and charcoal, grounding the painting in a balance of movement and permanence.

Working predominantly on the ground, her large-scale pieces are shaped by sweeping bodily gestures, transforming the act of painting into a physical performance — where creation itself becomes an event.
