ABOUT THE ARTIST

I am Nathalie Gribinski, a French-American artist based in Chicago. My work is driven by intuition, movement, and a deep love of color. Using oil markers and acrylics, I create playful, rhythmic worlds where figures, animals, and symbols dance freely. Inspired by music, nature, and inner emotion, my paintings celebrate joy, connection, and the poetry of life in constant motion.

ARTWORK STORY

In Bird with Vacuum, bold oil marker lines carve out a surreal menagerie of profiles, creatures, and a central avian figure seemingly tethered to a vacuum-like device. The work draws from Jean Dubuffet’s raw immediacy and the subconscious flow of CoBrA artists. Created directly on canvas without sketching, the process embraces improvisation and playful distortion. Here, mechanical forms meet organic life, hinting at themes of consumption, absurdity, and the dissonance of modern life.
