Delphine Perlstein is a self-taught painter from France. After studying dance, design, and then sociology, she has decided to devote herself entirely to her art. She has been painting for more than 15 years, traveling the world through numerous artists residences, including Norway, Iceland, Denmark and Sweden.
Her paintings tell stories where mythology, art history and everyday life cohabit. Both realistic and dreamlike, served by bright and contrasting colors, they retain a mystery which makes them undecipherable.

About the artist
Delphine Perlstein
"My painting is a pop nod to the works of the 19th century which evokes romanticism but which also expresses a tender look at the motives of young people very anchored in a contemporary era via their attitudes, their clothes, their haircuts. However. it is a rock n roll romanticism, like young people coming out of nightclubs, disillusioned, sometimes haggard or arrogant. lively which makes them psychological and uncertain which is specific to our contemporary reality. The characters have in common a certain fragility, hesitant, lost or even arrogant as in adolescence. There is this tension which moves the characters and questions the viewer.
