Anne Van Mierlo

When she states that Expressionism was her greatest artistic revelation, the intensity of her work comes as no surprise. The exaltation of color and the stylization of forms clearly reveal her deep attachment to this artistic movement. She lives through color, and as a result, makes the entire surface of her canvas vibrate with energy.

In recent years, works on paper have become part of her artistic practice, allowing her to combine her two passions: drawing and painting. Working on paper presents a new challenge for the artist  to capture the essence with a minimum of strokes and lines. The live model lends itself beautifully to this facet of her art.ly with live models, captured in the moment. The vigorous, raw lines that emerge from her paintings reflect the intensity and emotion she experiences and embodies during the act of creation.
