ARTIST STATEMENT

​

Pascale's practice is deeply rooted in oil painting and in photography.

​

Pascale's work stems from her desire to question the collective self through the creation of contemporary works that her generation can identify with. Pascale's goal is to capture the rebellious energy emerging from the feeling of suffocation that takes place following the experience of our restless culture on a daily basis. Primarily treated through oil painting, but also photography, human interactions, concepts of gender, religion, and social status are deeply rooted in Pascale's practice. Her work provides a platform for repressed social concepts by transforming her subjects into vibrant conceptual figures, or soft, desolated shapes. Pascale seeks to bring forward these complex subjects as they highlight the beauty and complexity of human nature. Her work contrasts with the fast and tensed energy of everyday life through its approach to the processing of feelings, colors and symbolisms.
