Where memory becomes color

“My practice is rooted in intuitive painting, where movement, sensation and memory guide the composition rather than predefined forms. I approach painting as a sensory language, translating impressions, inner landscapes and emotional states into color, gesture and layered transparencies.”

— Emy Rose Oz, French contemporary abstract artist

Wing over Rough Seas

What happens when we move through uncertainty?

Built through layering and reduction, this piece grew out of a constant dialogue with the material. I first laid down an immersive ground, then worked with instinctive gestures, letting forms emerge without forcing them.

The wing was not planned. It revealed itself through movement, as the composition slowly found its balance. It became a symbol of resilience, intuition and transformation.

Under-Skin Velvet

What is felt beneath the surface of appearances?

Beneath the surface, nothing is linear. It drifts, overlaps, hesitates between softness and tension. I let the forms build like currents: some hold, some cut through, some almost disappear.

There is no centre and no single reading, only passages, sensitive zones and quiet layers of colour. It feels calm at first. Underneath, it is constantly in motion.

Afterglow

What remains after everything seems to have faded?

Afterglow explores the traces that remain once an emotion, a memory or a movement has passed. Translucent layers, fluid forms and suspended lines evoke invisible energies that persist: delicate, fragmented, deeply alive.

The painting sits between silence and resonance, where what fades keeps on vibrating.

Carved Between Forces

What happens when opposing forces find balance?

A silent dialogue between opposing forces: tension and flow, structure and openness, shaping a landscape that is both inner and elemental.

Inspired by natural formations carved over time, the composition is a space where energy circulates, settles and transforms. Layers of colour and fluid gestures reveal a territory that is never fixed, always being formed.

Strawberry, In Your Mouth

The intensity of sensation

A vibrant composition where pigments dissolve and collide in an organic flow. Balancing softness and intensity, it evokes an immediate, almost physical sensation, like a flavour that appears and fades.

Instinctive and alive, it captures the fragile moment between control and release.

About the artist

Emy Rose Oz

Emy Rose Oz is a French contemporary abstract artist whose work is held in private collections in Monaco, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States. Born in 1988, she lives and works in Lyon, France. Her work explores intuition, memory and emotional transformation through color, gesture and movement.

Working primarily with mixed media, she develops her paintings through spontaneous marks, textures and fluid forms, allowing each piece to evolve organically. Her works are not representations of physical places, but emotional and sensory landscapes: fragments of memory and time translated into color and movement.

Influenced by artists such as Helen Frankenthaler and Joan Mitchell, she creates paintings as open spaces for perception, memory and inner travel.
