"When Myriam Baudin explains the process that leads to the final result, we are amazed by such a precise vision of what she wants to express. Nothing is left to chance. Everything is perfectly thought out, structured, organized and expressed. Almost a plan of attack. If someone asks her where her inspiration comes from, she has no answer, but she is convinced that the inventor artist is a fantasy. Myriam Baudin uses images from the press and the advertising, preferably those that have been widely disseminated and that offer - and impose - an ideal of beauty. Each image is interpreted, recreated, and the original image is rarely recognizable. A way of installing the image in a new reality perfectly fictitious. The body and faces are inserted in geometric shapes which symbolize the organization of our society. Mocking the world with irony, causticity, acidity but also to seduce, to please, sometimes with tenderness, always with tact. p make it seriously. Especially not. And use the lever of seduction - with sensual and almost erotic portraits, with elegant framing of faces and body details, with a sense of staging and refined coloring. A letter of insult from myriam Baudin would surely be interpreted as a letter of compliment by the distracted reader, just like his paintings which seduce then question. Who therefore question without violence, with an apparent softness served by a unique aesthetic. Myriam Baudin is a subversive artist who uses the weapon of seduction to denounce and have fun with the faults of our society. As in all her works, Myriam Baudin works in acrylic in several layers to obtain an almost perfect result. "- J. Olesczinski, art historian
