Corinne
Vonaesch was born in 1970. She
discovered and investigated artistic expression during her secondary
education,
in « visual arts » section. Self-taught, she then
pursued her
artist's route, gradually developing a personal pictorial expression.
Therefrom
arises a coloured and contrasted painting, mainly inspired by the
surrounding
world and the internal representations of the artist - both filled with
characters, faces and feelings. Through
her painting, Corinne Vonaesch
ceaselessly investigates and questions the human being, his interiority
and his
spirituality. Faces and represented characters are often turned towards
themselves; they are purified. The spectator is therefore driven
towards his
own internal world, which he can investigate by means of the picture. Another
important source of inspiration follows from the Bible. In particular,
two
series illustrate famous texts : " The
colors of Gospel - John's Gospel in 21 paintings " and
" The seven days of the Creation"
(Genesis). This spiritual dimension feeds the exploring of a
contemporary
Christian iconography, confronted with a double challenge: giving
religious
illustrations a renewed place into our present image society — as well
as in
the Church — while, in the same time, proposing a new representation of
biblical stories, already represented by many other artists. Corinne Vonaesch’s painting is engaged. It guides the spectator towards his own human profoundness.
