Presentation
Søcø develops a portrait gallery between darkness and luminosity. Inspired by 20th century Viennese painters, the lowbrow school and street art, the works she offers are the mixture of a marked graphic style and an instinctive painting by dripping.
“I remain attached to figurative painting. The art of portraiture is for me a challenge of incredible complexity and an inexhaustible source of questions. Beyond humanity, femininity is my favorite subject. Women today more than ever are looking for their way, this quest in which I am engaged is expressed in painting. My painting seeks its way as my femininity seeks its own in a constrained and demanding universe.
I see this activity as a struggle that results in a process of pictorial treatment oscillating between sensuality and brutality. The resemblance to the model matters less than the universalist scope of the questioning. This one, like the canvas, always remains unfinished. "
