Chasse gardée – The Intimate Territory According to Nicolas Monjo

With Chasse gardée, Nicolas Monjo unveils a theatrical and densely layered scene infused with dark humor. This acrylic and oil painting on canvas (89 × 116 cm) showcases one of the artist’s recurring themes: the exploration of human dynamics, physical proximity, and the hidden tensions animating our intimate spaces.

At the center of the composition sits a woman on an armchair, her quiet posture forming a stark contrast with the restless world surrounding her. Her turquoise mask — a chromatic signature in Monjo’s work — enhances the intensity of her gaze. A stylized crown above her head subtly reinforces her ambiguous sovereignty, as though she presides over a territory only she understands.

Beside her, on the couch, an intricate knot of intertwined bodies forms a chaotic, almost acrobatic mass. Raised arms, doubled legs, startled faces, hands covering mouths — this human cluster evokes both inner turmoil and the struggle for personal space. It is a visual metaphor for the crowd of emotions, desires, fears and voices that occupy our mental landscapes.

Symbolic details enrich the narrative: the screaming mouth with a heart-shaped tongue, the pink rabbit holding a knife, the white dog with tightly clenched teeth, the skull head on the floor, and the red fish skeleton resting on a tray. These whimsical yet unsettling elements illustrate a soft, burlesque violence embedded in the everyday. Everything in the scene vibrates with a tension where danger, absurdity and tenderness intersect.

In the background, a framed “painting within the painting” reveals a solitary house, a bare tree, and a turquoise sky. This distant landscape acts as a silent counterpoint to the room’s inner agitation — an unreachable or imagined elsewhere.

Monjo’s palette heightens the emotional contrasts: the saturated ochre shapes the tension, while the turquoise provides irony and freshness. The grey, grainy skin tones — another hallmark of the artist — express both vulnerability and the density of living bodies. Each texture, each gaze questions the complexity of the human condition.

Chasse gardée reflects on the notion of territory — physical, emotional, psychological. The title evokes ownership, boundaries, and protective instincts. It may refer to a personal space, a memory, a relationship, or an inner domain that one chooses to defend.

For collectors of contemporary figurative art, this work stands as a powerful piece: narrative, symbolic, expressive and profoundly human. It exemplifies Nicolas Monjo’s ability to blend poetry, satire and introspection into a single compelling composition.
