Peau – Esther and Rita meet in a drawing workshop. The first, a young artist, teaches a nude drawing class for adults. Rita, older, divorced mother, is a live model to make ends meet. As different as they are, the two women are nevertheless linked as a drawer and model. A relationship that revolves around vulnerability and physicality, around looking and being looked at. Outside of these moments, each leads her own life. Both struggle with their own past, their own insecurities. Esther can’t find love, Rita has a difficult relationship with her daughter… Both women are waiting for something and, in the meantime, they cope as best they can.
Peau is a story of body and exposure. A story about aging, motherhood, the ideal of beauty, the thirst for perfection and the impact of time. About scars, shame, pride, sexuality, intimacy. And about life. The first Belgian – and Flemish – graphic novel published by çà et là, Peau is a beautiful graphic novel with soft and delicate illustrations and colors, and a superb portrait of women linked by an initially tenuous friendship that gradually becomes essential.
