Passage horizontal vers la lumière (2023) Painting by Marylin Cavin

Marylin Cavin, a contemporary Franco-Swiss artist, has dedicated her artistic vision to painting characters navigating within refined environments, capturing scenes that mirror our contemporary world. With a keen desire to delve into the pulse of the present, Cavin portrays our society through the lens of postures, attitudes, and everyday scenes. These scenes often bear the distinct imprint of modern life, influenced by elements such as mobile phones, mass tourism, and evolving clothing habits.

Cavin's characters gracefully traverse a minimalist and sometimes stylized space, offering a canvas that is often divided into two parts—symbolic representations of sky and earth, or land and sea. This deliberate division serves to direct the viewer's focus onto the scene itself, emphasizing the narrative and evoking a sense of contemplation.

For the past two decades, Marylin Cavin has been a consistent presence in the art world, exhibiting her work both in France and abroad. Her participation in numerous contemporary art fairs and shows has allowed her to share her unique perspective with a diverse audience. Recognizing her artistic excellence, she was awarded the prestigious Taylor Foundation Prize in Paris, a testament to the impact and quality of her contributions to the art scene. Currently residing and working in Nice, Marylin Cavin continues to explore the nuances of contemporary life through her art, offering viewers a thought-provoking and visually compelling reflection of the world around us.
