Christelle Momini-Duthu
MA Painting
My artistic practice as a contemporary painting artist is driven by a deep exploration of the human experience, the interplay between perception and emotion, and the ever-evolving nature of our world. Through my work, I seek to provoke introspection and challenge preconceived notions, inviting viewers to embark on a visual journey that transcends traditional boundaries.
I am drawn to the expressive power of colour, texture, and composition, employing a dynamic interplay of these elements to create visually arresting and thought-provoking pieces. Each brushstroke and layer of paint carries intention and meaning, capturing the essence of a moment or a concept and conveying it through a rich visual language.
My process is characterized by a constant dialogue between control and spontaneity. I embrace experimentation and embrace the unexpected, allowing the painting to unfold organically. This approach lends a sense of energy and vitality to my work, creating a palpable tension that captivates the viewer's attention and invites them to engage on multiple levels.
Themes of identity, connectivity, and the relationship between the individual and the collective often find their way into my art. I aim to explore the complexities of human existence, blurring boundaries between past and present, reality and imagination. My work serves as a reflection of the world we inhabit, encompassing its triumphs and tribulations, its beauty and its flaws.
Ultimately, I strive to create a space where viewers can contemplate, question, and connect with the artwork in their own unique way. Through the language of contemporary painting, I seek to evoke a range of emotions, provoke intellectual discourse, and inspire a renewed appreciation for the power of visual expression.
