STATEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My paintings and collage paintings present moments from my life. My creations oscillate between the figurative and the abstract. The exploration of color is primary. I am trying to develop a practice that sits astride painting and plastic arts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like to work with contrasts and layering until I achieve a balance of color and light. I like to mix techniques: painting, drawing, and collage. My collages use various materials, including fabric, jute, bark, spices, or leather. To create texture, I use different types of leathers and cardboards or paper inlaid with leaves or threads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each work is unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nathalie le Hesran has been passionate about collage since 2012. Creation is the story of her life…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her work has evolved over several periods. Her first paintings were figurative. Her second period focused on abstraction and exploring color. Today, she is in a period where her work is half realistic and half Pop art. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She has been showing her work since 2014 in art venues, galleries, libraries and in competition. She is part of an association of artists in Brittany and received a Coup de Coeur Award at the 1st International Competition of Contemporary Art in 2020. In 2021, her collage, Collage Acidul\u00e9<\/em>, received the 1st Prize in Abstract Art at the Concours d’Art International, presented by Art Certificate. She lives in Rennes, France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
