The KLE gallery, in the “city of painters” of Honfleur
The link between Lalou Kraffe's work and the town of Honfleur is woven around artistic inspiration and dialogue with a place steeped in history.
Honfleur, an emblematic port and source of inspiration for many painters, offers Lalou Kraffe an environment conducive to the expression of her poetic sensibility and the enhancement of her delicate universe.
Exhibiting in Honfleur, the city of painters , allows his works to resonate with a strong artistic tradition, while reaching an audience sensitive to the beauty, light and unique atmosphere of the city.
Thus, Lalou Kraffe's work finds a natural setting in Honfleur, where poetry, refinement and emotion meet the history and soul of a place dedicated to art.
Honfleur, a new exhibition space
For 25 years, the KLE gallery has enthusiastically supported the painting of Lalou Kraffe, dedicating an exclusive exhibition space to him.
Each new creation arouses wonder and curiosity in us.
We invite you to discover for yourself the richness and poetry of his universe during your visit to 42 rue du Dauphin, in Honfleur .
Treat yourself to a unique experience, immersed in the heart of a living and constantly evolving work.
A painter with a rich and unique universe
Lalou Kraffe's work revolves around telling women's stories, exploring all facets of their existence through feminine portraits imbued with gentleness and poetry.
Nature also occupies a prominent place in his work, particularly through his landscapes subtly inspired by Japanese aesthetics.
Drawing inspiration from the tale “The Princess and the Pea,” she manages to make you smile thanks to her mischievous and endearing princesses.
Poetry and technique
The original paintings
Lalou Kraffe relies on a particularly technical approach, inherited from her time at the Boulle school, which passed on valuable know-how to her.
She manages to combine rigor and spontaneity in each of her creations. Her classical approach, forged over the years through apprenticeship and careful observation, is combined with a lively inspiration and great creative freedom, perceptible in each of the stories she weaves on canvas.
Each work is born from a subtle balance between meticulous application and the momentum of the moment: from the preparatory drawings, carefully recorded in his notebooks since the Boulle school, to the final touch, always guided by emotion and intuition.
This technical requirement never restricts the poetry that inhabits it; on the contrary, it exalts its delicacy and depth, offering the spectator works where beauty, sensitivity and the pleasure of painting combine naturally.
