Amandine Urruty

Amandine Urruty was born in 1982, she lives and works in Paris - on her bed - a suitcase overflowing with pencils and ballpoint pens always within reach. After a few years of university studies and a brief career in underground French song, Amandine Urruty today draws deviant portraits, combining grotesque costumes and baroque decorum, miraculously reconciling lovers of alchemical symbolism with young girls wearing too much makeup.
