Presentation

Françoise Dagorn is a French painter. For 20 years, she had the chance to live in wonderful places (Seychelles, Hawaii, French Polynesia, Reunion, California), then returned to her native country. After these moments rich in multiple discoveries, painting naturally presented itself to her to draw attention to the beauty and fragility of marine ecosystems, delivering all that she felt in contact with these tropical islands and these cultures. different.

Françoise Dagorn's paintings transport us to all oceans, inviting us to travel and escape. Marine animals dance in the water to move and exude a natural elegance. Fascinated by the harmonious shapes of these marine beauties, Françoise Dagorn adds a colorful, imaginary and luminous touch. She paints the shapes of these marine animals by bringing a tonic and living aspect thanks to the gestures of the knife blade. Once a subject inspires her, she draws it and then comes the moment to create the relief that will give it life. The paint is then applied in parallel strips, superimposing a range of improbable colors giving free rein to his figurative imagination. Her self-taught approach has given her the freedom to step away from the standards and trends of fashion and create her own very recognizable style. The originality of his creations allows him to reach a very wide audience and has opened up an international market for him.

By sharing her love for marine animals, she wishes to raise awareness of the protection of marine biodiversity: "Creating an emotion is a first step towards awareness".
