Concept

Chantal uses contemporary expressionism of the female form to convey themes running in her world. Her art is a form of healing and art therapy. Themes in her work include female connection, self discovery, feminism, mental illness and healing. Each piece captures a moment or series of exploration, the most prevalent being the underwater series. The water has become a place of duality, peace and fear, anxiety and stillness. Her Fire series in contrast hopes to capture the manic phase, creativity, passion but also conflict and rebellion. These contrasting ideas engage on the canvas with texture and form, She illustrates the play between hard and soft, static and perpetual movement, creating interest and tension in her paintings.
