Solveig Sauvage

Born in Brest in 1997, Solveig quickly dreams of colors and stories by constantly sketching on sheets of paper, inspired by the artists encountered by her gallery owner mother, and by her father's passion for comics.

She discovered Japanese culture around the age of 10, through reading manga and animated films. It will become an important mark of his inspiration in June 2019, following a trip to Tokyo and Kyoto. His influences are then marked by the work of Kazuo Oga, Yôichi Nishikawa and Mateusz Urbanowicz.

She uses different mediums to create her works, but her favorite remains Nicker Poster Color, a gouache made in Japan using pure gum arabic as a binder.
