Priscille Vincens was born in 1974. Since she was a child, she has always spent her free time painting. After brilliant business studies she tried to reconcile both business and art while working at an auctioneer’s. Then she   used her skills working in cinema production.

The work requirements didn’t soften a feeling of real frustration. And her desire to paint was exacerbated but couldn’t be satisfied.

In 2007, able at last to take charge of her deep desire : painting. she decides to devote her life to her art, developing a technique centered on the gesture, the energy and the expression. A technique for which the result matters less than the ritual and magic moment of the act, which opens on the depth of her process.

She has been working for three years with a tireless energy. This magnificent work has enabled her to exhibit in France  and abroad.

Her vital energy and her desire to convey her passion for art and her taste for life has lead her to develop a new type of performance.
During concerts or shows, she’s done live painting performances, opening new perspectives to the relationships artists are having with their public.

Inspired by the great contemporary masters of the figurative paintings such as Bacon or Rebeyrolles, Barcelo or Leroy, she is also fond of the German expressionists : Nolde Kirchner or Munch. De Stael, Redon, Zao-wouki or Giacometti are some of her favourites too.
