Detailed description

Picture "Cellulaire" (2019)

Abstract art can also be appealing to illustrators. Mo Fontaine mainly paints abstract when she wants to free her head, filled with all kinds of figurations, again: Then all the heads, animals, flowers, etc. are sent on vacation and get a time-out. Without a specific pictorial idea, the painter then begins an adventure journey into the mysterious world of forms and colors. Detached from mimesis and meaning, abstract image formulas are also "equivalents" of moods and feelings.

About Mo Fontaine

Mo Fontaine's work is all about color and its manifold expressions: from subtle to expressive.
In her still lifes, portraits and collages, she combines elements from different cultures and times, because she loves the European art of the old masters as much as the Japanese art of the 17th century. In this way, 'decelerated', magical-sensual images are created, which also transport the discredited concept of beauty. Seen in this light, some of the paintings seem to have 'fallen out of time' - not least because the paintings quite consciously refuse a fundamental category of the avant-gardes: the 'art of artlessness'. The aim is a timeless art that will certainly still function in two or three hundred years. She completed her artistic training at the Folkwang-Hochschule in Essen.
