Brigitte Derbigny is a contemporary painter, draftsman, and printmaker based in France. Her artistry has garnered recognition both nationally and internationally, with exhibitions spanning Spain, Canada, and Brazil.

Derbigny's creative process is an introspective journey, a journey from the inside out, unfolding in the margins of her mind. It begins with spontaneous bursts of inspiration, manifested in quick sketches rendered in pencil, marker, ballpoint pen, or ink—whatever tools happen to be at hand. These sketches serve as the genesis of her artistic exploration, transporting her across temporal and spatial boundaries, from the realms of yesterday to the landscapes of today.

From these initial sketches emerge a diverse array of forms and mediums—small-format drawings, rapid writings, canvases, engravings, and papier-mâché volumes. At the heart of Derbigny's artistic oeuvre are the figures of women, whom she metaphorically births onto the canvas. These women, dubbed "His Venus," embody a timeless femininity, evoking the primal essence of the goddesses of prehistory. Yet, they are not mere embodiments of idealized beauty; they are complex, multifaceted beings—rebellious, tired, sad, jubilant, and fundamentally free.

Derbigny's palette is imbued with the vibrant red of life, juxtaposed against the graffiti of the world's tumultuous disorder. Her art is a reflection of her personal experiences, expressed with an almost obsessive yet undeniably playful fervor. While her focus predominantly centers around the feminine form, she also delves into the symbolism of the belly and its broader implications for the human condition.

A graduate of the Lille School of Fine Arts, Derbigny currently resides and works in South Burgundy, where she continues to explore the depths of her artistic vision, inviting viewers to embark on a journey of introspection and discovery through her evocative creations.
