Jeanne LORIOZ ✿ Part.2

D'Amore

e leggerezza

ti stringo

e ti avvolgo

tra i fianchi

senza fiato...

E diventi nulla

tra le mie braccia...

Jeanne Lorioz is a french artist born in 1954 and studied at the ‘Ecole Superieurs des Arts Appliques’ in Paris. In these delightful  works, the artist seems to frankly laugh at the notion of magazine beauty, capturing her magnificently over-exaggerated female figures in moments of supremely feminine contemplation, dressing or lounging or dancing; alone, in groups or accompanied by their pets, and occasionally by somewhat diminuitive male companions. While much of her work is playful, many pieces also have a gently nostalgic feeling that borders on melancholy.
