Laurence Elle Groux
This capsule collection of luxury umbrellas was inspired by the sad seascape of black umbrellas roaming the street in New York City on rainy days. She wanted to SHINE UNDER THE RAIN! So she did.
Laurence Elle Groux is an introspective Swiss self-taught artist residing in New York city since the 90's. She is working in stoneware ceramics and oil etching. The core inspiration of her work is the human psyche.
Influenced by artistic practices and design motifs found in Pre-Colombian, Mesopotamian, Renaissance, Art Nouveau, Modernism and Outsider's arts, Groux’s work inspires visual curiosity through the generous movement of material and coalesces as tangible objects of energy and beauty.
Elle’s work has been featured in group and solo exhibitions in New York, Switzerland, and Philadelphia and are housed in collections in Pennsylvania, New York, California, Switzerland, Canada and Mexico.
She will be at the Affordable Art Fair SPRING 25 in New York City, this coming March, with Gallery LEG.
She is working at present simultaneously on two new bodies of work. First, she is exploring new avenues with the "Healing Circles" series of drawings and working on sculptures based on the concept of Abstract Nouns. Abstract Nouns are that we cannot experience with our senses. I.E., Love, Hate, Fear, Hope, Solace, Innocence, etc.
