Broken beauties

Broken Beauties, through a dozen canvases, the artist once again celebrates her vision of women's beauty, this time exploring the passage of time and the effects of aging.

Fenx imagines feminine portraits, with precise lines but without dwelling on too many details, so as to let the viewer project herself freely.

These paintings pay homage to the timeless beauty that lies in life's imperfections and small scars. The women depicted proudly bear the marks of time, enhanced by the floral motifs that surround them.

These same motifs, often used to represent ephemeral aesthetics, reinforce the idea that life is both fragile and powerful.

Fenx's technique, with its precise, controlled strokes, forms strong, moving images that illustrate the wisdom, femininity and experience that come with age.

As for the floral motifs, very much inspired by ceramics and applied much more spontaneously, they create an interesting visual contrast and underline the unique beauty of each person depicted in her paintings.

Broken Beauties, like the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, celebrates the beauty of imperfection and impermanence, the very reflection of the cycle of life. A principle according to which harmony lies in the natural, not in the absence of defects.

This new exhibition exalts the multiplicity and richness of feminine aesthetics and beauty, depicting its evolution over the years, while keeping its magnetism and vigor intact.
