Corinne Bourtault-Jouffreau, known by the pseudonym Althea, is a contemporary French painter whose artistic journey is rooted in the belief that abstraction serves as a powerful mode of expression, providing individuals with the freedom to unleash their imagination. Althea's conviction lies in the idea that her paintings should convey their own narrative, even if the emotions experienced during their creation may elicit contrasting responses from the observer.

For Althea, painting is the essence of the artist's soul—an outlet for liberation, dreams, and an inner journey. It serves as a means of escape from the daily obligations and constraints that often stifle the human mind and heart. The act of painting, in her view, transcends the physical canvas, offering a space for profound emotional exploration.

The artist places great importance on eliciting positive emotions through her work—feelings of peace, contemplation, reverie, and serenity. Despite the potential for varied emotional responses from the viewer, Althea appreciates the unique advantage of abstraction, as it taps into the limitless realms of imagination that are accessible to all.

Althea subscribes to the notion that a painting's interpretation is subjective, varying according to the moods and perspectives of the beholder. In her artistic endeavor, she invites individuals to embark on their own personal journeys of introspection, guided by the abstract language of her creations. Through her dedication to the transformative power of art, Althea continues to carve a distinctive path in the contemporary French art scene.

The Artist was highlighted in an article in Artmajeur Magazine:
