簡介

Boogie Woogie Photography & PhotogStory are pleased to present "Reminiscence," a solo exhibition by Elsa Jeandedieu, a Hong Kong-based muralist and visual artist, at the Loft in Wong Chuk Hang until the 10 September 2023. The exhibition is presented together with 18th-century French museum-quality furniture and decorative art displayed by the prestigious Kraemer Gallery from Paris.

Born and raised in southern France, Elsa's artistic journey began at a young age, experimenting with various mediums and techniques. Her passion for painting was ignited by French art history and family background, drawing inspiration from great artists - notably by the textures of French painter and sculptor Pierre Soulages or the use of colors by Mark Rothko and Piet Mondrian. Her signature style emerged as she honed her craft, a harmonious blend of vibrant hues, bold compositions, and expressive brushstrokes.

Elsa has been expanding her creative talents and bringing her unique texture artworks and murals to Hong Kong, Paris, Italy, and many other places. In the past twenty years, her inspiring energy and creativity have resulted in numerous commissioned paintings and luxury art pieces for high-profile clients, including CHANEL and other high fashion brands.

As she turns forty years old this year, Elsa moves on to a new chapter and dedicates herself to artworks that reveal her inner voice. Her inaugural solo exhibition Reminiscence invites us to embark on a journey through her universe. As the exhibition title demonstrates, Elsa's painting brings the viewers to her childhood in a poetic way.

Elsa's work is deeply rooted in personal experience, exploring love, family, and memory themes. Her extensive application of materials like plaster, copper leaf, and marine varnish reminds her of something about childhood. As Elsa recalls, each piece brings her back to a specific place she had been in her teenage years. For her, childhood is blurry yet happy. Whenever she looks back, it is always shiny and colorful. She spent a lot of time on her grandparents' boats - the use of gold and rusty material in her paintings may be reminiscent of these memories. Elsa's work also delves into the realm of abstraction, as she skilfully manipulates color, light, and texture to create a palpable sense of depth and tension.

Elsa's paintings are a testament to her excellent command of plastic art techniques at the service of a profound understanding of human emotion. It is with great pleasure and pride that we invite you to explore and appreciate the evocative memories captured by this remarkable French painter with what constitutes her first solo exhibition.
