Bio / Artistic approach
Lu Monin is a Swiss-Brazilian visual artist born in São Paulo, SP, Brazil.
Lu Monin's artistic process fuses painting and mixed media art.
She integrates heterogeneous elements to create original paintings with geometrical forms and lines which literally surround her canvases, lending the artwork a soul and substance that is enhanced by the colours of her palette.
She also uses modelling paste to add relief to the work and she animates the canvas surface with splashes of bright colours.
She lives and works in Pully, Switzerland as an art teacher at her Studio "Atelier Lu Monin".
