The Resonance of Nature:
Hélène DeSerres’ Masterful Brushstrokes
by Viviana Puello.
Immersing oneself in Hélène DeSerres’ artwork feels like entering a vivid dialogue between humanity and the natural world. Her paintings breathe life into the canvas, where landscapes and emotions collide in a symphony of vibrant colors and layered textures. DeSerres’ journey as an artist, from her formative years surrounded by beauty to her mastery of diverse materials, is reflected in the depth and emotion of her creations.
Each piece emanates a sense of fluidity, as if the landscapes were alive, caught mid-transformation. In one painting, undulating blues and greens melt into one another like the ebb and flow of an unrelenting tide. The bold interplay of contrasting hues conveys not only the rhythm of water but also the resilience of life beneath its surface. DeSerres’ intuitive approach allows her to capture more than a scene—she captures its spirit.
Her connection to the Earth’s fragile state is evident in the delicate tension she builds between chaos and harmony. In another work, the rolling fields seem to pulse with energy, as fiery reds and electric greens merge with earthy tones. Here, her technique becomes an emotional statement—a poignant reflection of the climate challenges that stir her deeply. The painting invites viewers to confront these issues, yet it does so with a grace that inspires hope.
