Artist Statement

Artist Statement 〰️
Shaped by her origins and a deep openness to difference, the artist’s work is rooted in essential human values, emotional sincerity, and intuitive expression.
As a self-taught artist, she developed her visual language through an early admiration for the Impressionists, Expressionists, and later abstract art. While these influences helped form her practice, she has always preserved a strong sense of creative freedom. Her work resists easy categorisation, moving between painting, sculpture, drawing, and writing.
A sense of unity runs through her practice through recurring themes such as water, women, solidarity, respect for others, and respect for nature. Since 2011, pure pigment powders have become central to her painting, allowing her to explore colour as a direct emotional force across canvas and various materials.
For her, creating is a way of sharing, communicating, and connecting with others through feeling, memory, and presence.
Based in France.

Exhibition History
〰️
Exhibition History 〰️
Since childhood, the artist has felt a strong calling towards art, although this path was not initially encouraged. She went on to pursue university studies and a career in teaching, but her passion for art remained constant throughout her life.
She has continued to draw, paint, and sculpt, exhibiting her work since 1973 in a wide range of settings. Over time, her practice developed further through gallery exhibitions and participation in international symposia.
Today, rather than exhibiting extensively outside her own space, she presents her work through her studio-gallery and online platforms, continuing to share her creative practice with a wider audience.
