Mercédès SORET
The practice of art has always been natural and essential to mankind. From cave paintings of prehistoric caves, to contemporary art, painting is representative of the evolution of our societies, our cultures, religions, philosophies ... There is no rich and prosperous civilization without numerous representations of the art of its time. The artist is first and foremost a critical analyst of his environment, whether cultural with his stage paintings, geographic with his landscapes, and political with his historical representations or religious with his icons and other representations. Then he uses his know-how and his talent in order to best express his reflections, poetic thoughts, feelings about the society that surrounds him.
Our current society allows thanks to new technologies and new media to share across the world and with great ease this know-how and this analysis of our respective cultural environments. It is therefore a great chance for me to be able to share my artworks with Pakistani citizens.
