The French artist and illustrator Delphine Lebourgeois’ artwork draws inspiration from a range of stylistic sources, both contemporary and classical, combining symbols and cultural references in a playful and sometimes irreverent way. The duality in her drawings and her multidisciplinary approach during the creative and development process reveal the depth of meaning in her illustrations, which on the surface present a sense of fun, play and sexuality.
For her solo show, Prélude, Lebourgeois will be exhibiting her working drawings, allowing viewers to examine her practice, in which she uses line drawings
as a form of enquiry to explore her initial ideas. Through her experimentation, Lebourgeois successfully infuses her sense of self and her understanding
of feminine strength and beauty.
The exhibition begins at Jealous East on Thursday 11th October and ends on 28th October.
