Jolic

Artistic approach

The creative process of Jolic is unique: it always starts with paintings completely painted with a matte black. With brushstrokes, spatula, palm of hand or a cloth, the artist instinctively follows her inspiration while abstract art proves to be the best way to represent the intensity of her emotions simply by means of forms and colors. Her artistic approach is to balance and contrast but also to find focal points and leave quiet areas where the eyes can rest. She moves from one canvas to another with enthusiasm to bring them to a phase she calls "detachment". When Jolic gets to that point, it's time for her to let go. Only then can she seek a new canvas and start the euphoria of a new creation.
