Biography
collage artist
Florence Le Van, a contemporary French artist, defines herself as a creator of discordant universes, of a deconstructed reality staged in a new surreal space-time.
After a doctorate in Plastic Arts from the University of the Sorbonne in Paris, she received a scholarship from the Hoschule der Künste in Berlin (Higher School of Fine Arts) in the photography section where she studied the different trends in Berlin photography and the photomontage from the 1920s (John Heartfield, Raoul Hausmann. Hanna Höch, George Grosz …)
This is where his passion for creating collages was born.
The objective is to create an unexpected staging or an incongruous interpretation, to animate a lifeless space suddenly inhabited by objects, animals, humans coming from nowhere or elsewhere and to bring them to life in an improbable universe. which mixes concrete reality, the past, the marvelous, the supernatural.
The relationship to reality is thus based on contradiction, humor, derision, the transgression of classic codes and the diversion of the meaning of images.
Florence Le Van uses the technique of collage on paper from images cut out from magazines, various media such as origami paper or from her own photos without digital tricks.
