Nadine Salem’s journey

“One day I bought canvases and tubes of paint, and I chose painting.
Like everyone else who has fallen into the cauldron of art, driven into this wordless language despite the reluctance of the reasonable world.
The open book of museums, churches, and exhibitions guided me toward magic, teaching me the demanding impact of representation and color.
The public has always helped me refine my desire, followed me, and bought my images at all these exhibitions, allowing me to move forward and grow…
I have taken inspiration, I have seen, and I have longed for the Old Masters, the Impressionists and Braque, Chinese artists, De Staël and Gauguin, comics, and graphic novels.

Today, my tiny or more distant journeys, the events I witness—climatic or human, intimate and global—the spectacle of the world in which I find myself are my sources of inspiration and the root of the various themes that punctuate my path.”
