Violette Devaux

Violette Devaux. Freshly graduated art student, I’m always looking for new themes, new colors and new crowds to reach. I am eager to explore different media, art forms and fields: I like to think of myself as an aspiring Swiss Army knife. I have studied and practiced illustration, contemporary art, editorial illustration and book writing.

One major thing for me to always keep in mind is to link my political beliefs to my art. As a result, I often bring up childhood or gender through my characters, deliberately shaping them to exist outside of traditional norms. Furthermore, since I love cinema, I have developed a strong affection for narration, framing, and creating unique color atmospheres. I especially love using the absurd as well as irony to approach entertaining topics.
