Chantal Trine
Chantal is a Belgian artist, living and working from her home in Brussels.
Inspired by African fabrics Chantal brings together bold geometric shapes and earthy blocks of rusty reds and forest greens. She begins each piece by painting the entire canvas in glue and her chosen colour. Once this has dried, she then repaints the canvas in white acrylic which causes the ’crackle’ effect that you can see in every painting. She features strong patterns throughout this woodland themed collection, which along with the waxy finish echo the textures found in West African Batiks.
