"Dominique DORLA is a creol french artist, born in St Paul Reunion in 1973, Artist name is 'DORLA'. She did several individual and group exhibitions since 2010 and is currently an officially rated artist painter. After visiting most famous european art museums and travelling on neighbouring islands and countries in east african area, she's been led to concieve an androgynous and multiple faceless character who is pretext to revisit or interpret both the classic masterpieces and the creol realities of her island. This round pattern she called 'Yaya' can be found in most of her actual works and is kind of her own signature. Her medium of preference is oil on canvas, plywood sometimes. She uses numerous styles and techniques, unlikely compositions inspired by varied topics or famous artists paintings, explores lots of graphic questions sutch as shape and background, monochromatic palette, juxtaposed colors, plays with anachronisms. Her multiple ways to flirt with totally diferent registers from classicism to pop or street art don't help to classify her work in a clearly defined artistic stream but don't let any doubt about her artist touch.
« Since the great break in the History of Art which has broken conventions, mimicry in representation, artists have been constantly looking for their own writing, this is my approach by including the questioning of identity and relations between shape and idea. »"
