Discover the contemporary work of Viviane DE BARBA

My painting has become more refined over the years... the figurative elements have faded away. By restoring the essential to the "chance" of erasing, scraping and collage, an emotional force emerges and reflects the state of mind of the moment. Emotions are captured on the fly and placed on the canvas, without immobilizing them.

Working on every moment, going deeper into oneself, more deeply, feeling and giving... everything is so fleeting... The color is there to weave links between all these emotions and to reveal the light.

And the magic sometimes works!! And when a person stops in front of a canvas and an emotion unconsciously draws them into their own story... it's pure happiness! It may be that what I had to experience for the work to be born settles in them like an echo.
