Tendresse Sculpture by Marierf

MARIERF, that's how I sign my works. I've always dabbled in everything related to artistic expression.

Self-taught, I began sculpting. After several kilos of clay, I decided to take classes in a workshop to refine my technique.
For a year, I kneaded, sculpted, and patinated, and then it became clear... painting, mixing colors, and creating a sparkle on the white canvas.

I don't have any technique recognized by classical codes. I imagine, I research, and I like to work with materials, mix, structure, and stretch the paint until it reaches...
Immersing myself in the canvas or the material to create an emotion, a word... And share it.
Nothing is ever written in advance; only the blank canvas leads me toward the choice of a particular color or texture, and the rest comes according to the present moment.
To read one of my pieces, you will almost have to detach yourself from the image and approach my paintings in a more primal than cerebral way. This is done by striving to go beyond the image...
Look, let yourself be carried away by the canvas, without holding back a breath for a moment.
Abstract art cannot be described, but rather felt and experienced.
I choose my subjects where my gaze falls, where emotion speaks to me.
... TOWARDS THAT WHICH CANNOT BE DESCRIBED BUT IS EXPERIENCED…
