Mata Lee Art
Artistic approach
Originally inspired by the inevitable charm of exotic dancer and spy Mata Hari, Luc Perreault loves ideas based on insights. By redefining its own aesthetic conventions in the field of portraits and the nude, Mata Lee Art seeks both to sensitize feminine sensibility and to reinvent "fashion". His works are inspired by the world of cinema, music and fashion. Mata Lee Art puts in images a universe where Coco Chanel meets Tim Burton and Madonna. The paintings of Mata Lee Art resonate at a fundamental level of human emotionalism and awaken a powerful mixture of impulses.
