"Externalization" Print

Mrs SteamCloudy BIOGRAPHY The appearance of my works are only their emerged part. I started drawing from early childhood. From the age when a child is first given a pencil, I have never stopped creating. Self-taught, I used observation to picture my world. I was interested in any artistic field, painting on canvas, wood, various supports and sculpture. I like to link the mediums together, to reincarnate a subject in several forms. I brought many of my paintings to life in texts, which I then transcribed into music. After general studies, I worked in the entertainment industry to work on large format frescoes. Since March 2020, I have declared myself as an artist author to mar the canvases with its cracks. I thus began to give birth to my current style. I locate my works in Dark Surrealism. Paintings mixing dreams and darkness. Creation is a vitality to me, it is a visceral need to exteriorize my cerebral darkness. Psychology is a primordial subject in my paintings. I struggle tirelessly to find meaningful metaphors, hoping they resonate with a few people. I attach the greatest importance to illustrating psychiatric illnesses, psychological suffering. Too often in the shadow of our society, I want at my small level, to consider them at their right magnitude. For art; my life, my traumas, my pathologies, but also those of warriors that I have known, have become my muses. Expressing the shadow imperceptible to the naked eye, in surrealist metaphors, is for me a way of transforming suffering into an image, and thus, shimmering it beyond the cerebral cage. Isn't it completely surreal to want to highlight shadows?
