Manuela Paul-Cavallier

Manuela Paul-Cavallier knows how to transform ancestral skills into contemporary expression. From her former profession as a gilder, she kept an almost exclusive passion for the gold leaf, this impressive but at the same time delicate and malleable material that became the main subject of her creative process. Her "poems" on paper or wood invite us to capture the light but also to lose ones boundaries. Around this successful mixture of gold and raw pigments, our eye looks for contrasts, follow the brush stroke in her « gestures », search for light and shade in her "vibrations", true paintings of emotions.
