Raphaële Anfré is a painter, fashion designer and pattern maker developing her multidisciplinary practice in Paris. After completing a degree in fashion design, Raphaële sought to transcend her knowledge of shapely pattern and lust for contrasting colourways and translate it to canvas and paper. She eliminates the ‘rights and wrongs’ of traditional art techniques and removes the concept of error in drawing by neglecting the pencil and eraser in her work, applying colour directly. Her artworks meld bright pigment, female sensuality and a bit of humour to create what she often describes as “Erotisme Pudique”, or “Chaste Eroticism”. It is a tribute to the luscious quintessence of womanhood.
