La grande Sophie (2013) Painting by Juliette Gallas

My paintings are built from a mental image which will initially involve color and shapes. These will be oriented in one direction or another during the work as the image becomes clearer (the one that pre-exists on the painting, or the one that the painting will bring out)
 
In this orientation, it is as much a question of additions as of destructions, of choices not always easy but moving forward is at this price.
 
I test the materials, I He likes to mix them up, surprise is inherent to this way of working. Orientations are often made unconsciously - at least I don't know where it will lead me...
 
My unconscious is sometimes in phase with others who have the same images
mental, common visual memories. I like to translate a certain era, mine, with titles that have had an impact on me, films, books, cities, painters, feelings, negative or positive, which in fact drives us all ...
 
It's my back ground, my Anima, my shepherd star...what structures me, and which can meet those who are sensitive to it and perhaps share a part of it
