Rue de Paris

Carole Leprince was born in Paris, 1966.  She started painting when she was 26, just by chance, at a moment when she was questioning herself. Over the years, her personal photos have been the inspiration for painting. She paints both those close to her and strangers in moving settings that can contribute to spontaneous attitudes. She is keen on painting beaches, streets or parties. These photos do not need to be perfect; they are only a basis for an aesthetic space where she can drift into, and end up with a creative work before her eyes as opposed to a replica of a photo. It’s an enthralling work of commitment, where each painting turns into an equation to be solved.  Carole Leprince trying to put forward a layout, a secret place where each person can tell or come up with their own story.
