COSMOGONIE (2023) Painting by Francine Scrignac

Francine Scrignac, a contemporary award-winning French painter, is driven by the belief that one should never forsake their dreams. For years, she harbored her artistic aspirations until she finally found solace in a humble workshop, which burgeoned into a sanctuary of vital importance.

In Scrignac's creative realm, time transcends the confines of clocks, as days, hours, and months meld into a seamless continuum of creation. Through this journey, she has unearthed the purpose of her work: not to merely represent or transmit, but to authentically express herself in a manner that resonates deeply with others. Her aim is not to create something conventionally "beautiful," but rather to evoke genuine emotions, foster connections, and unveil the unseen.

Nature's proximity, worldly observations, and interpersonal relationships serve as wellsprings of inspiration for Scrignac. Every sensation, every feeling, influences her artistic endeavors, infusing them with depth and authenticity.

Despite a single fear lingering within her — the fear of succumbing to complacency — Scrignac approaches each canvas with unwavering resolve. She embraces risk-taking, employing bold lines and unexpected colors to defy expectations. There is no room for weakness in her expression, only a steadfast commitment to decisiveness and authenticity, even in the face of potential errors.

Yet, for Scrignac, there is no trepidation when confronted with a blank canvas. Instead, she welcomes it with the exuberance, abundance, and freedom reminiscent of a child unburdened by inhibitions. In this realm of creativity, Scrignac finds liberation, allowing her imagination to soar unhindered.
