About the artist Monique Pauwels

Inspired by the secret of her daydreams, Monique Pauwels has drawn from her early childhood. However, the ups and downs of life led her towards a serious, intense and Cartesian legal career. Over the years, the need for freedom, to imagine, to create and to paint has become ever more compelling.

In 2012, a major event will trigger the metamorphosis. Determined to deploy her creativity, she took academic painting lessons with Jean Uroz, a charismatic painter, who guided her on the path to artistic discovery and instilled in her the confidence necessary for her to take flight. This initiation definitively changed his existence so much so that today the need to paint is as essential as that of breathing: a bubble where art and life respond and merge.

She chose to paint with acrylic, a technique allowing her to freeze the creative moment and reveal light and shadow, transparency and opacity. His sources of inspiration are multiple: light, colors, reflections constantly awaken his imagination. His gaze captures a line, a movement like a round that he draws in and makes it vibrate... Then everything comes together as if by magic. The artist expresses himself in these terms about his work: “My paintings are not a translation of reality but the feeling of my interior gardens; they are not perfection according to intellectual criteria, they are creations at the flower of the soul.

Born in Neuchâtel, Monique Pauwels shares her life between Switzerland and France.
