About the Artwork:
“This painting is inspired by the impression of a personal feeling of Déjà Vu; since some years now, even if the characters of my pieces are not inspired by an auto portrait, some people share with me the fact that they saw a part of me in it. Sometimes, some presumme that the painting is base on my portrait in some ways when even it is not the case. I protect my intimacy behind a lot of layers but at the end, my work is still really personal & raw and I try to share my own intentions & stories trough them. In some ways, my signature become more signifiant in the eyes of the spectator. Oracle Sister is an ode to this sensation; Here, I’m expressing it in a ludic way relating with a playing role. Hazard & coincidences, colorful correlations, atmosphere of torment. I worked with no boundaries regarding the palette to represent a rich coherent excentric esthetic mixed with a contemporay ambiance with a little retro touch.” – Marie-Eve Proteau
