Wounded Peinture par Gina Lafont

Gina Lafont is an artist whose creative journey unfolds in the heart of Paris. An autodidact, she has honed her craft over two decades, believing firmly in the organic evolution of artistic form. Preferring to cater to private collectors and discerning buyers, Gina’s work speaks to a select audience who recognize the unique voice and vision she brings to the canvas.

Before embracing the full-time pursuit of painting, Gina’s career as a marketing executive with industry giants such as Pernod Ricard and the Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG) was marked by her work with some of India’s most celebrated music artists. This professional experience, bridging both international and Indian music scenes, nurtured a deep understanding of the interplay between creativity and audience. Today, this background continues to inform her art, grounding her expansive, textured works in a wealth of experience.

Her paintings are exuberant compositions that fuse vibrant color with rich texture. Yet, Gina resists simple classification. “It’s said that a picture paints a thousand words,” she muses. “But I prefer to let my paintings speak for themselves.” Although her work could be loosely described as figurative expressionism, Gina rejects the confines of labels, viewing them as an imposition that curtails the freedom and potential inherent in fluidity. “In fluidity lies freedom and hope,” she says, “and a future unburdened by hard definitions. For me, art is a living entity—it should never feel finite, but rather, continuous, evolving.”

Her approach to painting is deeply spiritual, a manifestation of the dialogue between her spirit and psyche. “I paint from the place where my essential self speaks—a timeless space that transcends the limitations of the intellect.” This intuitive understanding often allows her to paint scenes that, at times, seem to capture moments in the future. “There’s a connection I feel with my audience not through intellect, but through the spirit. Art, for me, is an expression of the universal human connection that transcends rational comprehension. It’s in this realm that true resonance occurs.”

Through each brushstroke, Gina invites viewers to step into a space where time, intellect, and definition dissolve, leaving only the raw, unspoken language of emotion and spirit. It is this elusive quality that makes her work not just seen, but felt—an invitation to connect beyond the canvas and into the very essence of being.
