“My aim is to make people feel my emotions through my paintings”
Christelle Benaglia is an inspired and profound artist, whose paintings are full of intense colour. Christelle Benaglia is known for not allowing herself to be confined by imposed limits and ready-made ideas. In her art, she remains absolutely free of any constraints and allows her works to develop as they are created. The colour combinations are then absolutely intuitive and wonderfully free-floating. Spontaneity, abstraction and colour are the main elements of her multi-faceted paintings, which are always born in the moment thanks to an ongoing creative process. Christelle has mastered the art of improvisation and fully exploits the potential of her brushes and canvases.
“My aim is to convey my emotions through my images. The journey is made through the eyes of amateurs who offer me the privilege of their interest. So come on board with me…”.
Christelle Benaglia’s art is a return to her roots, allowing her to delve deeper. She expresses this through colour combinations that are at once imposing and graceful, yet lively, powerful and highly communicative. The spectacle of the material, the colours, the multiple orders and the impressive handling of the brush offer the spectator a moment of emotion and invite him to linger. The informal works leave plenty of room for personal interpretation – the viewer is taken on a journey through his or her own imagination, and is free to indulge his or her own personal fantasy.
Space and time merge into one another and do not play a major role in understanding. Here, you simply let yourself be swept away into a dream world, under the spell of lightness and colour. Dimensions disappear, too, and all that’s left is the wonderful harmony and radiance of works of art adorned with superb accents of light and elegant lines.
