Valérie Weiland
France
Presentation
Self-taught artist, I embarked on artistic creation in 2012, after looking for a work that I ended up imagining myself. Since then, this trial has turned into a real passion.
My paintings are a combination of techniques: acrylic paint, various resins, Posca… and images recovered from magazines, pieces of newspapers, lacerated posters, stencils… to create relief and dynamism. They stage improbable, often humorous associations, where black and white rub shoulders with bright colors and where modern graffiti respond to vintage images, with a raw, matte, damaged or faded finish, which I particularly like.
New York, Paris, fashion, pop icons, old advertisements and modern graphics borrowed from Street Art are all sources of inspiration.
