Biography
Francine Saugey, a contemporary Swiss painter, found inspiration during her time in Italy where she was captivated by the enchanting relief of ancient palaces and ruins bathed in the country's distinctive light. This experience opened her eyes to a second level of reality, allowing her to forge connections through her paintings between the lost worlds of historical pasts and magical realms of imagination.
Initially influenced by Surrealism, Saugey gradually diverged from its confines, drawing inspiration from the philosophical works of Bachelard and the literary creations of Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, and science fiction. This evolution in her artistic journey culminated in a distinctive style which a journalist aptly labeled as "semantic painting," as it encompasses both discourse and visual expression.
Her semantic painting is a deliberate exploration of the profound symbols and archetypes that reside within the collective unconscious, seeking to expand the boundaries of consciousness beyond conventional limits. Through her work, Francine Saugey invites viewers to embark on a journey where historical narratives intertwine with fantastical realms, inviting contemplation and exploration of the depths of human consciousness.
