The work of Anne-Valérie (°1986, Roeselare) is a quest for elusive, personal answers to the questions that have surfaced in her life over recent years. Her practice breathes the movement between restlessness and stillness.
She draws inspiration from perfect imperfection, from the beauty of the everyday and the small joys of daily life. In her eclectic visual research – a quiet act of resistance against her own perfectionism – she gives shape to this sense of wonder.
"Endlessly shoreless" is how Anne-Valérie once described her feeling in one of her works. Today she's looking for a shore: sometimes in image, sometimes in word, often in blue – and now and then with a touch of humour.
