La Baigneuse is an ode to simplicity. With a single continuous line, I aim to capture the essence of feminine presence: silence, introspection, and inner strength. No background, no color — only form.
I choose black ink on white paper because the contrast allows the emotion to speak purely. The figure is not a portrait or model, but a distilled thought. She is not just bathing in invisible water — she is immersed in her own world.
In my work, I don’t seek realism, but balance. A composition must rest, just like the figure. Every line carries weight and purpose. Nothing is accidental.
La Baigneuse is an invitation to pause and reflect. It speaks to collectors and viewers who are drawn to minimal art with maximum meaning.
