The artist was born in a Belgian town near Luxembourg and France. At a very young age, she became passionate about painting. Her first job was a revelation for her: precious stone cutter, she discovered the infinitely small.
Mother of 2 children, she runs painting workshops in the Arcachon basin.
She took lessons and worked for Michel OYHARCABAL, a painter renowned for his oils and church stained glass windows in Switzerland.
During these 10 years, she worked on bodies, faces, still lifes and various techniques including watercolor, oil, dot work: colored pencils and Indian ink
Following her studious years, she found her way into LYRIC ABSTRACTION with the techniques: oil on canvas and Indian ink, for which she is now recognized in exhibitions (2 prizes in 2017).

Her notable influences: ZAO WOU-KI for its lyrical diffusion, Odilon REDON for his symbolic approach, BONNARD for his sumptuous colors, TURNER precursor of lyrical abstraction.

His last fairs or exhibitions:
- 2017: Toulouse, Carcassonne, Rodez, Brussels.
- 2018: Deauville, Carcassonne, autumn show at the THUILLIER gallery in Paris.

For 2019: Toulouse (February 15 to 17), Luxembourg (from April 26 to 28), Bordeaux from October 30 to November 3), Brussels (from November 22 to 24)

Who can believe that the universe is empty, cold, dark or silent?...

The Universe in which Nelly Kieffer takes us on a journey is none of these things.

p>

It is movement, relief, force... the colors come out of the matter, or is it the matter which is born from the color? And Nelly's universe is made up of all materials: droplets of water or ice, dust of rocks or clouds, cascades of light and fire, incandescent chaos, soothing landscapes...

Carrying us away by going back in sidereal time or a projection towards a possible future, Nelly's work defies the course of time and has no age.

Dive at altitude, ascent to the depths of clouds, abysses and chasms lift us towards the force of the unfathomable.

The richness of Nelly's world is in this controlled energy, as are her technique and her sense of color.


Enough to get lost there, or find something there...



Geno Namy, 2019
