| Ciou
[FRANCE] Ciou’s art has found its way to private collections owned by trailblazer like Camille Rose Garcia, Paola Hivelin, Jennybird Alcantara and Joy Wanders. Her art has been shown in the Urban Nation museum in Berlin, Palais de Tokyo and La Halle St. Pierre, both in Paris, The Madre Museum of Contemporary Art in Napoli and is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of la Poste in Paris. The acrylic with Rotring® ink works have a focus on the Japanese culture with her own ‘Kawai’ cosmology of characters, mainly centered around witchy nature burlesque girls and their strange animal companions. Ciou was inspired by parades, carnivals and Hokkaï (a Japanese ghost). Her parade is a mix between a dark celebration and happiness. You can join her Black Parade and find new horizons. Let the magic begin!
Ciou (1981) comes from Toulouse, the pink city in the south of France.

Future Projects include her first book "Chat Siamois" with her first vinyl toy, with the scenarist Guillaume Bianco, venusdea editor and a lot of new drawings and paintings.
Ciou's artworks are cute and scary, a mixture between wonderland and nightmares.
She paints with acrylic and ink and makes collage for the background. The Background is composed by a lot of little old papers taken from old dictionaries or medical books.
