Helene Beauchesne

ARTISTIC APPROACH:

Her current approach consists of reflections, experiences and research. Creating is a state of mind that she experiences every day and which is constantly evolving. The art that is specific to it defines it, it transposes its emotions of the moment on the support. As these change and evolve, what emerges from his work reproduces them. She favors paper as a support, its different textures add a challenge to her creation and give her this physical feeling of working with matter. The smell of ink and paper brings her back to the past, to little school and to the happiness she had in writing with ink. The pen allows her to reconnect with the pleasure of the gesture and gives me this feeling of flying away in a universe without obstacles, a wonderful daydream. The abstract pictorial expression allows the viewer to create their own reading.
