Discover the contemporary work of LILI COME

A multidisciplinary artist, she experiments with different techniques and mediums – painting, drawing, digital tools, collages – bringing to life a colorful and poetic world.

Inspired by nature, her travels, and the colorist painters she particularly loves, such as Paul Klee, Matisse, and Estéve, she takes a sensitive look at the world, which she reinvents through her inner vision."

I create above all to express a vision of the world where The imagination, nourished by spirituality, takes over the chaotic conformism of our time.

With her diploma from the Beaux-Arts de Paris in hand, she stayed for a few years in Cergy in a small house on the banks of the Oise River, then decided to settle in Antibes. During the ten years she spent in the south of France, her palette lit up and the colors came to life.

She stayed for a few years in Martinique, this island of shimmering colors, whose energy she felt and which inspired her powerful compositions imbued with mystery and history. The "Caribbean Characters" series is a striking example.

Back in mainland France in 2019, she settled in a small village in Languedoc, near her family roots in Béziers. After exhibiting in numerous galleries in France and abroad, she decided to experiment with a new way of experiencing her art. In Velleron, near the island of Sorgue, she and her husband renovated an old building with a space allowing her to exhibit her work and meet her audience.

Convinced that "art is a powerful bulwark against the rising barbarism of our time  she continues to explore new avenues to bring the regenerative energy of her vision to the world.

My work explores our world, nature, and humanity in all its facets through imaginary landscapes where unique characters evolve.

I like to repurpose objects, play with shapes and colors to give birth to unique figures, often imbued with humor and poetry. My approach is based on an intuitive and free approach..

Each work is, for me and for the viewer, like an encounter, a story to discover, a dialogue between what is visible and what is not.

Technically, I mainly work with oil painting. oil and acrylic, but also mixed techniques that allow me greater freedom of expression. I like to experiment, layering materials and textures to give relief and depth to my compositions.

My work is part of an artistic tradition between Expressionism and Art Brut. Paul Klee, Estéve, and Miro are among the artists whose approach inspires me, particularly in their way of freeing form and color from academic conventions.
