Soledad

Soledad, whose real name is Sabine Groizeleau, was born in June 1979 in a small village in Ain. After growing up in this region, she continued her studies in Lyon, where she entered an art school to specialize in photography. Passionate about meeting people and capturing expressions, she has worked with various photographers in different fields.

In 2000, Soledad decided to go to Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, to produce a report. It was there that she discovered her passion for portraiture, capturing the faces, looks and smiles of locals. This experience had a profound impact on his artistic career.

Moving to Paris in 2005, Soledad turned to graphic design, a discipline which became her profession during her Parisian years. In 2011, she decided to settle in Marseille, attracted by the cultural diversity and dynamism of the city.

In 2015, Soledad met Virya Neang, an art therapist and visual arts teacher, who passed on her passion for drawing. Enriched by this encounter, Soledad found in drawing a new form of artistic expression which allows her to capture faces in a different way from photography.

Inspired by artists such as Man Ray and his work "Black and White", Soledad now devotes herself to creating black and white portraits in graphite and pencil on paper. Through her drawings, she seeks to immortalize the beauty and diversity of human faces, thus perpetuating her passion for meeting and capturing expressions.
