Le veilleur (elephant eye) Painting

Born and living in the South of France, by the Mediterranean Sea, a promising artist in the performing arts since the age of 10, Almakan first embraced the more practical path of international business management, the artistic career being considered a destination to nowhere. An engineer with a degree in geopolitics and strategic foresight, she ran businesses for 20 years, mainly in the fields of new technologies and communication, before deciding to devote herself exclusively to Art and try her luck as a full-time artist in 2016. "Extracting Beauty from chaos and creating the future" is the whole soul of Almakan's artwork. Her world is blue and black, tinged with sunlight, just like her native land. Her relationship with the future conditions her technique, she paints on canvases voluntarily uneven, sculpted with plaster or worked like a wrinkled skin in the image of our planet Earth, this blue stone... and like our existences, rarely smooth. Obsessed with possible futures and the winding paths that shape humanity much more than the highways, she never stops exploring them by all the means given to her, combining painting and curiosity drawings.
