Sandrine Wely is a French artist, painter and draftswoman born in 1966. From the age of 8, she follows an assiduous artistic training, which will lead her to the diploma of the School of Fine Arts of Paris (ENSBA) in 1992. 

Curious by nature, she also studied decorative painting at the Compagnons (FFMB). She then worked as a set painter in the workshops of the Comédie Française and as a press and multimedia graphic designer in a small agency.

After these various professional experiences, Sandrine Wely returned to real life, that of a painter. Her work is essentially an emotional and spiritual approach to the world around her, and if her gaze sometimes seems uncompromising, her commitment is primarily poetic. 

Sandrine Wely always finds something to learn from nature, even if she only works in the studio. Her need to internalize sensations, images, lights, ideas, does not invite her to paint outside, and if she happens to sketch a landscape, a tree, a village or other, it is to look at it accurately. She works on her memories and unfolds them in images and colors, the form is most often at the border of abstraction, or rather a reality freely reinterpreted. Her sensations are thus richer and more accurate, never seeking to represent.

Sandrine Wely works in series, because they allow her to deepen and reinterpret the same subject, to torture it again and again, until it becomes hers. Certain themes are therefore recurrent: bridges, boat holds, factories, black sun, fanaticism or popes.
