Further Works of This Artist
Our Mission and Actions
At THE ART HUB, our mission is initially focused on addressing a profound imbalance within the art world, specifically catering to women artists. In the current landscape, a mere 5% to 15% of artworks traded at auctions are created by women, starkly contrasted by the overwhelming 85% to 95% of works by male artists. This disparity is not only confined to auctions but is also prevalent in exhibitions, where male-created art significantly overshadows that of their female counterparts.
By concentrating our efforts on female artists, THE ART HUB aims to counteract this imbalance and champion women within the art community. This initiative is designed to amplify the visibility of women artists, making their creations more accessible to a wider audience, and ultimately striving for a more balanced representation of genders within art auctions and exhibitions. By prioritizing women in art, our platform boldly advocates for equality and diversity within the art sector, signaling a commitment to reshaping and enriching the cultural landscape.

Artist Statement
Whether painting or upcycling – it is always difficult to classify my work as a whole. What remains constant is its versatility. For me, creating is a game: at times playful and childlike, at times painful or frustrating, but always full of surprises and serendipity.
I love mixing techniques, styles, and colour harmonies – seeing where there seems to be nothing, or forcing myself to see nothing. This irrepressible process has become a kind of Sof label. I call it en tous sens – to be read both physically (artworks visible from multiple angles), perceptually, and emotionally, engaging several senses at once. It also describes my personal way of juggling and combining techniques, materials, and subjects.
