Pop Up ! 3 (2021) Painting by Bérénice Art

I prefer to leave leaving behind 10 hard-hitting works rather than 10,000 uninteresting works.

Hello, my name is Bérénice. I have a rather typical artistic life course. Scribbles on loose sheets in childhood, art schools as a school curriculum, mentions of excellence in front of teachers...

What makes me there today is that for a long, very long part of my life I created what was expected of me without ever knowing who I am. I met the expectations and requirements to have my diplomas, it paid off at the time. Except that today I am in a real discovery of myself through my art.

Sometimes it takes me years to complete a piece. First I have a flash in my head. Then I sketch it. Then I lay a base in the material. And I edit, edit and edit again. Until the result resonates deeply with my soul.

Art can be an escape. I mainly use it as a therapy or an observation of who I am. Through gestures and images, I speak. Better than in front of a psychologist. And sometimes I manage to put words down afterwards. Sometimes I don't feel the need. It's up to you too to feel, see and interpret what you want.

I like trees because I myself am a Tree: with my roots, my trunk and my leaves. Life.

Art has allowed me to heal from the worst and build the best.

I wish you a good journey in my gallery.
