The creative process is simple: associate two words (often without correlation between them) from a dream, a thought. In this work it is the words "couple" and "the invisible". To represent "the couple", the artist represents in the foreground the emblematic figures of the dolls for young girls: Barbie and Kent. This ideal representation is somewhat marred by what is not visible: it can be, the double life, alcohol, the metamorphosis due to a secret life. The carriage will drive all night long, even a whole life. In "Under The Carriage Wheel", the artist tries to tell a completely different story of the couple. He mixes naughty vagaries with sexual connotations and a little magic. The artist often includes popular celebrities in his compositions. In this case, it is Boris Karloff aka Frankenstein and Agnes Moorehead aka Endora: on the one hand a monster made by the hand of a Human and on the other hand a fantasist with magical powers.

"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.
