Exhibition "Citizens of the World" and "Patchwork of Kimonos".
My artistic approach : Through the creation of characters I seek to highlight the richness of cultures, the diversity of its expression and the similarities related to the personal or societal difficulties that we all have to face. Our breaks, our fractures beautify us, strengthen us, differentiate us and bring us together. We are all different in appearance and yet so close to our humanity ...
Very characteristic, my inspired characters ... Read more »

Ma formation en histoire de l’art, mes premières armes à l’atelier du Musée d’Art Moderne de Villeneuve d’Ascq et le Centre d’Art à Lille ont façonné ma démarche picturale. Ma peinture est un long cheminement entre les vaines contraintes de l’imitation et une abstraction trop aride. Cette confrontation oriente mon regard sur le monde qui reste la source de mon inspiration. La palette se doit alors d’être resserrée pour arriver à l’essentiel et laisser libre cours à une ...

I am a freelance illustrator who swings between illustration and ceramic accessories. The white of the porcelain inspires me like a blank sheet of paper and gives me the satisfaction of actually holding and wear an object of creation.
For my illustrations I use mixt mediums like guache, aquarelle, ink and pencils. Sometimes I like to collage hand cut pieces because gives more volumes to my drawings.
Recently I got fascinated by folklore patterns, Japanese stamps and botanical ... Read more »

The Artist: Fritures de style
Biography of the artist: Fritures de style is a project of creations of poetic and artistic nuances (photography, green art, writing ...) which puts at the heart of his reflection the poetry of everyday life. Fritures de style wants to make sense of the moment and stimulate the senses that it helps to awaken. To photograph is for the artist to experience the pleasure of being alive and to transmit this desire in turn to the person who looks at his work. The ephemeral ... Read more »

Description of the proposed exhibition
Drawings based on photos of anonymous people, most of them taken in Morocco or found in family albums, Ghizlène CHAJAI shares her investigations and her will to reclaim her own history, mixing imagination, emotion and exoticism. The colours and patterns of her “blurry stories” constitute memory filters reflecting ignorance and attempts to rebuild memories and invite us to think about our multitude of origins and the complexity of our identities. “I ...

My name is Marco and as a visual designer and photographer, I love the challenge of having to communicate without using words. When I travel, I love discovering new places and cultures and enjoy taking pictures in order to communicate ideas and feelings. Since my first journey, at the age of 17, I started taking photos to remember the feeling of what I had in front of me. A little detail can show you things, people, animals and places in a different way. Every shot I took means more than a simple ... Read more »

The equation is: wooden embroidery hoop + threads + fabric. The inspiration comes from everything around me, mainly from different cultures and traditions that cross my eyes. My first theme has been plant-releted, while every city that has touched me significantly has a small range of exemples.
The four proposed examples were chosen because they are among my favorites and/or because they concern the city of Strasbourg, which I visited several times. Other subjects concerning the most significant ... Read more »

The series Géométries Variables
The works in the Géométries Variables series are visual compositions that explore purity and simplification through the use of geometric shapes and a limited range of colors.This work reflects the graphic connections and formal relationships created by the coincidence of light and exposure to a detail in a public space. The imperfect lines vary according to the angle of view and the photograph is then a reading proposition with variable geometry.

This is the ... Read more »

Possession of the “secret de la jeunesse, a quality of graceful and disarming innocence powered by a vigorous optimism of spirit”, is how Picasso described the appeal of the young David. Between April and June 1954 Picasso worked exhaustively, creating more than forty drawings and paintings based on Sylvette David’s image, in addition to sheet metal sculptures, assemblage sculpture and ceramics. Picasso noticed David in Vallauris and handed her an accurate pencil study of herself, drawn from ... Read more »

I use fine Tiffany-type glass in conjunction with marble, limestone and granite, which I cut and shape into different forms, my goal being to create harmony between the light of the glass and ...

C’est au cours d’égarements hasardeux que la plupart des œuvres photographiques de Charles Urban naissent. Il peut s’agir d’un moment figé dans le temps ou d’un détail dans l’environnement qui paraîtraient anodins aux yeux de la plupart des passants, mais qui seront capturés pour être révélés au regard de tous. Il ne revendique pas un attachement au réalisme brut ; bien au contraire, c’est au travers de sa subjectivité qu’il essaye d’explorer le monde. Il s’épanouit ... Read more »

Après avoir déménagé à Strasbourg il y a quatre ans, j'ai commencé à apprendre à peindre le portrait et la peinture d’après modèle vivante.
Strasbourg m’a inspirée de nombreuses manières. Cette ville m’a donnée envie d’expérimenter de nouvelles façons de décrire sa beauté et de transcrire ses formes. J’ai également voulu y dépeindre mes enfants pour les voir grandir et découvrir un nouveau pays et une nouvelle ville.

Born in 1977 in Bastogne, Belgium, she had a "revelation" for painting at the age of 28 during her first pregnancy. This led her to take painting classes at the Arlon Academy of Fine Arts from 2006 to 2009.
In her creative process, she quickly focused on her paintings the expression of the knife, conducive to the work of materials and light, which she associates with oil paint, for its intensity, its brilliance, and its nuances of incomparable colors. Thanks to the use of fluorescent pigments, ... Read more »

In my paintings and sculptures, I have talked for more than 50 years about Human rights, which have been and continue to be permanently violated, by all the signatory countries from the beginning to the present day. I have strengthened my commitment to this topic since I moved to Nuremberg, the city of Human rights. Many of the 30 articles have reminded me of facts, stories, or events that I have partly experienced myself, just as each of us could certainly list numerous examples of disregard for ... Read more »

For almost 15 years, I've been helping my wife, Mireille, in firing her sculptures, before begining to make pottery myself. Raku is a firing and enameling technique which was born during the 16th century in Japan.
After having sculpted or thrown the different subjects from a lump of clay, I fire them during 24 hours (1st burn) in a potter's kiln (980°). Then, I glaze them before firing (2nd burn) them again (950 - 1020°) in a gas kiln during 45 minutes.
