Meet five established artists who, having caught the eye of our team and collectors in Europe, are now showing work on our global platform.
db Waterman
Dutch artist db Waterman uses a variety of techniques and materials to create fictional settings that house nostalgic images of children. Her aim is to shed light on the hidden beauty of childhood. Her paintings, which explore the dissonance between old and new materials, feature dreamlike, melancholy scenes and characters.
Her work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in Amsterdam, London and New York and Tokyo.
Arnaud Lorieau
Arnaud Lorieau works in series, his image-making process and output evolving over time. The iPad has become his precious ally, allowing him to create preliminary studies and serving as a notebook for him to explore ideas before entering the studio. This tool gives him access to what it is that he ultimately wants to portray: the quintessence of form and space. His digital creations are projected onto the studio wall using a video projector. This stage sketches out the contours of each future composition. This projection is then brought to life on canvas.
At this stage, Lorieau’s intuition as a painter takes over, allowing him to go beyond the flatness of his source image. Space and form emerge from a succession of repetitions and superimpositions of motifs, inspiring a visual dynamism rich in depth and texture.
Pauline di Valentin
Pauline Di Valentin, an artist from Amiens, France, creates ink-on-paper works featuring forgotten architectural structures nestled among of lush vegetation. In her works on paper, pastel residences emerge in dense jungles that disrupt and transcend our standard categories. She uses ink, diluted and blurred, to create speckled effects and a sense of translucence in her subjects. Inshades from pink to green, a fusion of architecture and vegetation emanates from these imaginary lands.
From one work to the next, a harmony emerges, an echo reverberates between the various species of vegetation, the buildings, the colours, the tangible elements and the characters, all interacting in a symphony belonging to the same sphere, a shared idea.
Mathilde Oscar
Mathilde Oscar began her artistic career by immersing herself in the history of academic art. After working in graphic design, she discovered photography by chance in 2013. She then transposed her pictorial visions, drawn from Old Masters as well as the Romantic and neo-classical movements, into this new medium.
Her creations have the same glow and atmosphere that distinguish Old Master paintings. She often placesemphasis on the design of sets, costumes and props, further enriching her images. Her inspiration also comes from the more digitised world modern world. In this way, she forges a singular visual aesthetic, blending the canons of classical painting with photography and digital art.
In the course of her anachronistic and unusual portraits, she weaves an enigmatic temporal tapestry encompassing hundreds of years of art history. Her world, imbued with romanticism and sometimes tinged with surrealism, features mainly female characters, who stand proudly.
Zeynep Perinçek
Zeynep Perinçek's works straddle the border between the figurative and the abstract. They include natural scenes and silhouettes of plants, minerals and animals. Other works are more figurative, depicting mountain panoramas and woodland creatures.
Her works give the viewer access to a poetic and natural universe that awakens the imagination. Perinçek manipulates colour and, material, allowing chance to guide her process. She combines painting, collage, engraving and printmaking to create compositions with singular, organic effects.
