Painting
Why it’s Great
From the curator: Lisbeth’s colourful and powerful abstract creations have a stunning aesthetic seduction and show mastery in the realm of ‘Pouring’ art. Her works are already being snapped up by major European galleries.
Lisbeth Monéton is a Danish born contemporary artist based in the South of France.
Having lived and travelled abroad extensively, she takes her inspiration from places and things that she has seen and experienced, modern design, fashion and contemporary art. She has also worked in the fashion world for 25 years with her own fashion stores in Denmark, California, USA and France.
Back in France, Lisbeth discovered and fell in love with ‘Acrylic Pouring’ in 2018 due to its unique and unpredictable effect of the paintings which matches her motto of “Every Moment is Unique”.
In her series Colorful Chaos, choosing primarily 10 colours, she experiments with the depth and range of colours by mixing paint with other mediums to create a liquid, pour-able consistency, sometimes adding silicone to create more cells. She recommends these 80cm x 80cm paintings be presented as a rhombus to experience a unique view.
Colours are Lisbeth’s number one source of inspiration influenced by the strong and vivid colours found in places she has explored – a snorkeling experience in Fiji with the iridescence of the corals, the monumental Mosque in Abu Dhabi with its white and gold chroma, fields in the Netherlands awash thousands of tulips, and the visual intensity of the festivals in India and Sri Lanka – inspiration is found everywhere.
