About the Item

Iris Garden is a painting made by Evelyne Ballestra, a French contemporary artist. This piece is a part of a flower series, defined by their distinct bright colors, satiny, silky, vibrating materials and form. The flower series is reminiscent of the Fauvist movement, using highly intense color patterns that correspond with this artist own exuberant nature. Her juxtaposition of colors and large canvas allude to a certain freedom that is seen with the Post-Impressionist approaches of Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh and Henri Matisse. Ballestra expresses a unique movement in each painting with a very subtle sensuality and a juxtaposition of colors to reveal light and shadows, creating a synergy between the piece and the viewer. She incorporates colorful narratives and cultural innuendos that are inspired from her travels around the world, especially Egypt, Latin America and the Seychelles. She attempts to link the human beings and the universe through her pictorial expression which is connected to the mineral, vegetal and animal kingdom. Since 1974, Ballestra has exhibited in over 25 major group and solo exhibitions throughout Europe, Asia and the United States. Dimensions: H. 36 in. x W. 36 in.
