About this artwork
In this portrait, I approached the skin as a material rather than a smooth surface.
Pores, irregularities, and subtle variations in tone are intentionally accentuated.
Instead of softening these details, the painting observes them closely, almost clinically.
The skin behaves like a tissue: a network of pores and cells organized in lines, similar to a warp and weft, which follow the architecture of the face and bend according to the tensions… of the nervous system.
What interests me here is not the memory of a life, but the presence of a moment — a moment of slight discomfort that, in everyday life, we often seek to get through quickly.
In this painting, that moment is prolonged.
By observing the microstructures of the skin, the portrait becomes a study of how the nervous system briefly appears on the surface of the body.

A Czech-born painter living in France, she develops a figurative practice centered on the body as a site of inner transformation. Nourished by training in visual arts and fashion design, her painting—influenced by expressionism—blends anatomical rigor with instinctive gestures.
Through figures often isolated, immersed, or confronted by a boundary (water, glass, surface), her work explores the processes of individuation and integration of the Shadow, in the sense of Carl Gustav Jung. The body becomes the visible stage for psychic and perceptual tensions, revealing
Through figures often isolated, immersed, or confronted by a boundary (water, glass, surface), her work explores the processes of individuation, the integration of the Shadow, and the states of vulnerability linked to becoming oneself. Flesh becomes the visible terrain of an intimate passage, where psychic tensions, sensory perception, and presence crystallize in the pictorial matter.
