“I call myself EpiCurious and this is how I paint. »
Swiss-based artist NBCH was born in 1971. She started developing her taste for painting in highschool with art teacher Pierre Keller (Director of the University of Art and Design Lausanne, 1995-2010).
Sand and acrylic are intrisic to her work, along with constant research on graphics, shades and textures. Exploring the essence and the continuity of each experience and translating it into a firework of colors, geometry, curves and squirts and passing them on through her paintings, has been her greatest delight since.
Wishing to continue uninfluenced, NBCH has remained self-educated. She has exhibited successfully in prestigious galleries throughout Switzerland and, in 2007, she won the Spectator Award at the En Beauregard Art Awards. Worldwide, she has been invited to present her work in various cities, such as Barcelona, Vienna, San Francisco, Rome, Beijing, and received in 2012 the Premio Ercole d’Este in Ferrara, Italy.
