EP 346: Parisian Abstract Painter Andrea Mongenie
Andrea Mongenie
Born in 1989 in Paris, Andrea ventured to
London in 2007, to pursue studies in fine
art, and printed textiles at the University of
the Arts.
Over the course of 15 years in London,
Andrea's creative path flourished as she
excelled as an Art Director and set
designer, leaving a lasting impact on
diverse projects spanning cinema, design,
and interiors. However, the birth of her first
child rekindled her deep passion for
painting, drawing her back to her artistic
roots.
Now based in Montreuil, Paris, Andrea
embraces her dual british and french
identity infusing her artwork with a unique
perspective. Andrea’s compositions play
with light, texture and movement drawing
inspiration from her personal experiences
and nature. Vibrant colors and abstract
forms are the hallmark of her paintings, conveying emotions and inviting viewers into warm and tranquil worlds.
Andrea Mongenie's artistic process is marked by gestural and instinctive techniques, seeking balance through the interplay of colors and forms. Multiple layers, continuous color mixing, and the inclusion of materials like sand or cement add depth and texture to her works. The result is a visually calming and emotionally charged body of work. Her art serves as a tribute to the complexities of human nature, skillfully bringing together contradiction, chaos, and imperfection to create beauty.
