About the artwork

This painting, titled “Milano,” is a contemporary work that combines black-and-white portraiture, graphic textures, and symbolic elements.

A woman with an expressive face is depicted in black and white. She wears a garment adorned with floral patterns in black, gold, and yellow, which break up the dominant gray tones of the background. These motifs are stylized—almost abstract—and form a complex, elegant geometric composition. A yellow flower placed on her left shoulder adds a touch of softness and warmth, while echoing the fabric’s patterns.

The background consists of a textured gray wall, streaked with white drips and decorated with white flowers.

A black silhouette is seated, either painting or contemplating. This detail introduces a mise en abyme: the creator facing their creation.

The inscription “Milano” suggests a connection to the city of Milan—capital of fashion, contemporary art, and design—thus reinforcing the artwork’s artistic and cosmopolitan dimension.

 

 

About the artist Françoise Schmidt

Self-taught, I have been drawing and painting since childhood.
My background as a teacher of young children allows me to explore the visual arts in all its forms and complexities. With this young audience, I discovered the little pieces of paper that we throw away, store, collect, and recycle. I use these pieces of text, words, and images to construct colorful worlds imbued with lightness and poetry.

Like the mix of cultures, I love the blending of materials, tools, and techniques. I use acrylic paint, spray paint, smoothing compound, sand, stencils, stamps, and of course, paper.

My collection "Homage to the Women of the World" is the culmination of a long journey of discovery, plastic experimentation, my attraction to fashion and the creation of clothing.

I invite you to enter this universe and let yourself be carried away by your emotions and feelings.
