Anaïs LF

Anaïs LF, young emerging artist, painter of feelings and encounters, grew up in Normandy, near the water. After studying information and communication sciences, where she explored the forms of romantic and cultural encounters, she places these encounters at the heart of her art. In 2018, his desire to create becomes a compelling need to transpose his feelings and explore his creative consciousness.

She wants her works to have a meditative quality. She does not seek to represent reality, but lets herself be guided by her freedom.

She does not aim for aesthetic harmony between each work, preferring to let each piece exist independently. Each creation is a self-contained entity, reflecting a distinct moment in its creative and emotional process. This intentional diversity allows his works to capture a diverse range of feelings and experiences, providing the viewer with a rich and multifaceted exploration of his artistic world.

Anaïs LF wants her works to leave room for the viewer to exist. The contemplative spectator, faced with a work, studies it, extracts elements that are interesting to him, and acts. To go even further than the contemplative attitude, she would like the viewer to integrate into their environment, to participate in constructing and composing the work. His returns in the form of reinterpretations each time underline a little more the multiple opportunities for encounters between oneself and the spectators as well.

The creation of spaces of freedom and encounter between oneself and others remains at the center of his art.

Summary of main series (2019-2024)

Each series reflects an artistic and personal evolution, exploring different techniques and inspirations to express deep and personal feelings.

This series is part of abstract expressionism, using the "All over" technique to completely cover the canvases, expressing intense feelings such as injustice and melancholy. The creative process includes techniques favoring the fluidity of painting, without brushes or knives, but with the hands (sometimes a few sticks), to create unpredictable and deeply emotional works.

Inspired by natural and warm colors, this series explores fluid and sensual movements, symbolizing artistic evolution and the connection with the sea. Using large brushes, the artist fluidifies the canvases with Gesso or acrylic paint, creating thick layers that mark their features.

Focused on the exploration of black, this series is inspired by Soulages and expresses the nuances of black through varied textures, representing mourning and resilience. The works capture light differently depending on the texture, creating powerful contrasts.

Inspired by Mediterranean blues, more design notions, and certainly the Colorfield trend, this series uses flat areas of bright colors, notably Majorelle blue and Klein blue, in contrast with black and white. Using varied techniques, the artist creates thick layers of paint, exploring contrasts and bringing life and hope through the color blue.
