ABOUT THE ARTWORK

[Viva La Vida] is a series started in the late 2000s. One of the first drawings is entitled "Like The Dolphins". It consists of sheets of paper coloured with felt pen, acrylic, India ink, ballpoint pen or/and coloured pencil. The creative process is simple: associate two words (often without correlation between them) from a dream, a thought. Here, the artist is inspired by the city of wrestling fights, and the city of Drag Queens. This series also draws its energy from the Pop Art movement. The artist uses characters known to the large audience. Here, they are Théra's boxers as well as the drag-queen Divine. It is about the fight for equality of the person in a festive atmosphere. This series is characterized by the flamboyance of the colors.

"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.
