Treasures et curiosities

Lauriane Delgado-Ferranti grew up in Pomerol, nourished by the shades of pink, mauve and deep purple of the sunsets of Gironde.

​

From her strolls in fields, vineyards and gardens she brings back pickings that she mixes with her treasures garnered as a ballerina. Her creations offer a focus on worlds filled with light, curves and counter curves.

​

The artist finds her inspiration in the fruit and the nature around her.

The down of the flowers turns into fabric, the pearl becomes a drop, gold lies alongside silver.

Lauriane mixes treasures and cheap junk, spangles, tulle and taffeta….

Fruit becomes erotic, material sparkles, colours delight.

The sensual drawing evolves into a caress.

​

Her style, deeply Mannerist through its shapes and radiant colours, is always on the move, a throwback to the graceful gestures of the dance that she has practised a lot since her childhood and that inspires her to this day.

​

‘Every gesture is a form of dance, I dance when I paint and my body sways freely’.

Lauriane Delgado-Ferranti passed in 2003 a Master’s Degree in Fine Arts at the Université Michel de Montaigne Bordeaux III, where her work pinpointed the correspondence between the Arts of the Dance and Visual Arts.
