New York painter and artist Faustine Badrichani created this new oil painting series for a new show coming to Paris next month in November. Today we get to preview and feature the exclusive NAKID artist-to-watch series titled, ‘Intimates‘.
“In this series, I paint delicate moments of a woman’s life, away from everyone’s sight, at home, in her intimacy. We see her getting dressed and undressed, removing her makeup, resting at home, drinking her morning coffee at her kitchen counter, enjoying the winter light through the window, etc… Faustine Badrichani is a French artist based in New-York. Her work focuses on the female body and is an exploration of femininity, showcasing colorful women’s silhouettes.”
Over the past ten years, Badrichani – with the exploratory mind characteristic of self-taught artists – has developed an extensive artistic practice, from oil paintings to sculpture (direct plaster) and focusing on works on paper and acrylic paintings in the past few years.
Faustine works from life and invites models to pose in her New York Studio. “ For me, painting women is a play between what is universal and what is intimate, and this exploration is endless”. The female body has always been a central figure in her practice, and she has developed different series of works around this theme, creating her own graphic universe, and showcasing a unique use of the color blue throughout her work.
Faustine Badrichani is represented in France by Esther et Paul gallery, and in New York by Untitled ArtSpace. In June 2021 she had a solo show in Paris, named “D’abord la Mer”. Her work can be seen in group shows in New York with various galleries/curators ( Insight Art Space, Untitled Art Space, Brooklyn Collective, Spring Break Art Show).
