I am happy to do, in my eyes, the most beautiful job in the world where the imagination is permanent, essential. This world was created to be shared, I invite you to discover it.

Originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina, Silvia attended school before spending a year in California. She was introduced to art, particularly urban art, through the graffiti on New York walls. On her return to Argentina, Silvia enrolled in a marketing course. A few years later, settled in France, she began training at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Nice. Today, working from her home studio in Antony, near Paris, she divides her time between painting and running thematic workshops.

Created from acrylic and mixed media, the works of Silvia Depaire underwent an important development to the discovery, of the informal and choreographic world of American artist Paul Jenkins (1923-2012) in 2016. Since then, the young artist has worked with enthusiasm and passion in the practice of flow painting, combining acrylic with various pigments and textures to compose bold, colourful, vibrant and luminous compositions. Deeply attached to the nature and landscapes of her childhood, Silvia is inspired by the elements, in particular water, to translate the transparency of the seabed and the depth of the celestial vault into painting.
