ARTIST STATEMENT

 

 

I am a French political, Pop Art artist based in Vienna, Austria. Upon completion of my Bachelors in Art History and Archaeology at La Sorbonne in Paris and a Master’s Degree in the Art Market and Business, I started working for the United Nations and the causes I worked for gave birth to the concepts and themes that shaped my art series.
 
I use a variety of mediums: photography, sculpture and painting; to convey messages revolving around animal rights, the environment & human nature.

My main sources of inspiration are the Renaissance, Japanese ancient and contemporary art, the Young British Artists and Chinese contemporary art. The Venetian Renaissance has shaped my taste for colors, and artists like Agnolo Bronzino have taught me the power of strong lines. Neo-Nihonga has moved me to draw from contemporary imagery to appeal to the mass and materialize messages, while ancient Japanese art demonstrated the impact potential of poetry. The YBA impressed upon me their powerful visuals, and Chinese contemporary artists have perpetually affected me with their reading and artistic processing of political matters to raise awareness.

The year 2018 marked my first exhibition in Florence, which since then has been followed by a flow of opportunities to showcase my works internationally, including among others Paris, London, Zürich, Berlin, Venice, New York, South Korea and Dubai. In 2020, I won the Kalos Art Prize for one of my paintings from the “Medici” series.
