Biography
The artist will begin by making portraits of women. Whether painted on canvas or sculpted in clay, Isabelle first seeks to perfect the resemblance with the subject, to highlight the reliefs and to go beyond the frame. Working in parallel with pure abstraction, she gradually comes to mix the two. Letting himself be guided by his thoughts and his mood, the artist now mixes figurative and abstract.
Her feelings, her stories, she draws them more from the past identity of the materials she chooses rather than by doing introspection work.
Indeed, she likes to appropriate all kinds of materials and objects worn by time, marked with a first life. She adds words, imperfect lines drawn in charcoal, "accidental stains" of paint, ink or pigment, then she puts these elements together like the pieces of a puzzle.
