About The Artwork

Created in early 2021, 'S.T.A.R' is a tribute to Sylvia Rivera, an activist of the 'Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries' movement in the 1970s in New York. The work is about cross-dressing and freedom of choice in appearance. It is more of a wink: 'S.T.A.R' is about gender and the deliberate way in which cross-dressing is appropriated. In its composition, this work plays with the duplication of doubles as an infinity of possibilities. The colours are inspired by Pop Art with a dominance of gold and silver. "S.T.A.R" was first exhibited in Saint-Etienne (France) and then in Berlin (Germany).

"Everything is important, everything is beautiful, everything is sad. Where do we start if we choose to tell life and make it a work of art? Michèle Mailhot My work is eclectic, both in its form and in the use of media. In general, I work in "series". I think that one of the ways of making things interesting is through diversity: the styles as well as the techniques are varied. It can be the animal world [The Animals], societal criticism [Human Behaviour], comic strip-like drawing [Mr Doggy], crazy images as if from a dream or nightmare [Short Stories], gentle melancholy [Sky Blue] or, based on my own experience, phantasmagorical worlds in a dazzling frenzy [Viva La Vida]. I am currently working on the latter series. These series are very different from each other. What interests me are the variations in energy that they imply for me. So I go from one thing to another like one goes through experiences. This is often what happens in art in general and in life in particular.
