Boom (2021) Drawing by Edith Donc

Edith Donc, born in 1978, lives and works in France. She uses a wide variety of materials, such as oil on canvas and linen, acrylic on canvas and paper, collage on paper, gouache, acrylic and chalk on stone, as well as ballpoint pen on paper. His artistic style is eclectic, encompassing street art, body painting, portraiture, outsider art, minimalism and impressionism.

Graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Liège in 2005 with a degree in monumental painting, Edith Donc stands out for her apparently diverse but deeply coherent work. She views her creations as an integrated whole, where subjects and years merge to form a meaningful and complex work, similar to a three-dimensional Rubik's Cube.

Gazes, captured in a hypnotic and piercing manner, constitute a central theme of his work. They establish a direct link with the spectators, trying to decipher them. His landscapes, often inspired by nature and sublimated by the imagination, explore pareidolia in a context of absurd society. His works are dominated by bluish hues, symbolizing immensity and space.

Approaching her themes with vigorous and spontaneous gestures, reminiscent of a child impatient to capture an evanescent thought, Edith Donc flirts with art brut, expressionism and impressionism. She describes her approach as cyclical and chronological obsessionism, thus creating her “pictorial Holobiont”.
