Hélène Matlis

I create my paintings by assembling fragments of color, material, and emotion. Inspired by Cubism, the works of the Masters, human forms, and everyday objects, I always seek a balance between structure and sensitivity.

Each work is born from a dialogue between geometry and spontaneity, drawing and color, memory and intuition.

Trained at the Beaux-Arts workshops in Paris and passionate about art history, I paint with pigments, textures and above all with this constant need to make the material vibrate.

My work tells of often feminine presences in deconstructed spaces where abstraction leaves room for the tenderness of the line.
