Lu Monin is a Swiss-Brazilian artist whose process merges painting and mixed media materials.Reworking her collages with the eye of a painter, she integrates heterogeneous elements to create original paintings. Geometric shapes and lines are literally tamed into her canvases, giving the work a soul and substance enhanced by the colours of her palette.

When Lu Monin starts a new painting, she never knows where it will take her. It is the emotion and the softness of each brush stroke that guides her. The lines are precises as long as they are intuitive and outside the artistic rules.
The result is a composition full of freedom that goes further than the impression of a simple look on the canvas.

Her choice of colours is vast, but always focused on strong contrasts. The artist gives free rein to her imagination and that is what leads her beyond our expectations.

 

" When I paint, it's like walking through my dreams. Sometimes I lose track of time. Painting is a game, a pleasure and a challenge every time." - Lu Monin
