Catherine Chauloux

Born in 1957 in Nantes.

revealing one's imagination is an excessively intimate and generous approach. It's accepting to deliver to the other a side of oneself, which most of us would hide. out of modesty, or worse, out of shame, it is always difficult to confess one's fantasies, one's dreams and one's imaginary escapades.

fortunately, some artists manage to go beyond restraint, to deploy the full force of their imagination in their works. Catherine Chauloux is part of this "school", or rather, claims to belong to a truant school in which escape is welcome. In these numerous works, all so unique, and yet all linked to each other by the same "creative arc", his imagination works wonders.

it delivers dreams, visions, worlds. fantastic worlds that cannot be placed on a map, and yet in which characters live under cover
prying eyes. Catherine Chauloux opens the doors to these strange countries, straight out of her free spirit. We come across singular courtesans, "genius adventurers", colorful and bizarre sketches...

did you say weird? Yes, definitely and for the best. This overflowing imagination will charm you all the more, as it releases your desires for elsewhere, as it breaks down the boundaries between reality and fantasy to take you far, far away from everyday life.
