My artistic work often results in a hybrid piece between painting and installation. I want to use mixed medium  to bring through with more accuracy what I am to share  with an artwork. My old favorite and always present medium is ink paint though, to which I will add other types of material that “feel” right for a specific creation. My chosen work themes are often first conceptual, and I can research, process and create around them for a long period of time. Like seasons, it makes circles, leaving me and coming back but never ending. Like an imprint in our psyche of past experiences or trauma traces in our cells, what I am going through with my artistic process never leaves me really.  My themes ( or obsessions) often cross or complete each other as well. I feel the need to work around themes like women cycles, feminine energies, burnout and mental charge, dreams, humanity and lately gaza … but the source of all work processes is always emotions. Emotions I feel about a subject. And with the idea in the background that by feeling our emotions, there is hope that humanity will progress.

I want my work to be summarized with this question : What do you feel there ? Do you know why ?

If you want to know a bit more ;

I come from south of France and after a time in Germany I settled in south Sweden, by the sea. 

I have learn through the years that I am closely developing alongside my artistic practice, and that not doing it is not possible for me. The difficult periods have taught me to take care of it, commit to it and decide for my own well being that creating is necessary to my life.  Being highly sensitive and seing the world with my eyes can be very overwhelming at times. But I know as of today, that I can release the exigent emotional weight if I keep creating consistently. Moreover, I know now that I can share that vision to the world. As an inspiration, to nurture it too.

That´s why I do what I do. To inspire myself and inspire you. With the colours I applicate on the canvas, or when i perform an imaginary scene, I bring up a dream in our reality. And if we share that dream, we have a connection. Emotion and connection are maybe the most important things for me. That´s why I am an artist in this world. So I can release the emotional energies I feel, and I can give something from it. Giving is very fulfilling. 

 

I could write here all my experiences in the world of the arts. The schools I went to, the exhibitions I have made. And all of it has probably played a role in where i place myself today as an artist. However, there is a few elements i consider more formative to how I create today and who I am as an artist and i would like to share them to you. 

I have had in art school one course about ink fourteen years ago and how to use it and fell in love with the medium. Since then, it is at the center of my creative process.

My personal experiences in life have taught me more about myself as an artist that the art courses I have attended. Observing and contemplating. Taking in to take it out is key.

The way I look at the things around me, the details I see, and the rich layers of interpretation I have about a situation or a person are the source of my inspiration.

The difficult periods in my life are the starting point of some of my most interesting and dedicated work. For exemple, the emotional burnout.

I trust that emotions shows with colours. Though I don´t think about which color, which emotion when I paint. I recall a feeling and I paint intuitively. That´s why I can be obsess for a while which a palett. Like emotions, colors can linger around. They tell us things. 

I need to be in a calm place to create. But exchanging, communicating with people and collaborating with other artists is important for my work. It helps me to grow, feel stronger, get out of my comfort zone, and be active in something I find so important to our world : a community.
