Amsterdam based French artist Fleur Spolidor loves living abroad to discover new cultures. Born in Paris, she spent her childhood visiting castles and museums. After receiving her MFA, she taught Art History and Fine Art at a university and in private schools of design. In 2003 she moved to the San Francisco Bay Area. Influenced by her new surroundings, she started a series of paintings called "Alice," in which she mixes the story of Alice in Wonderland with the history of San Francisco and Paris to represent the schizophrenic state of these ever-changing cities. Eco-conscious, Spolidor layers recycled and found materials in her work like papers, plastics and metals. Spolidor's palette is bold and colorful while her subject matters raise awareness on worrisome issues like the never-ending fight for women's rights or climate change.
