Muriel Napoli

What is found in my paintings is nature's ability to change independently of the action of humanity, from its origins to today.
The formation of the oceans, the origin of water on Earth, sedimentation, fire, magma, formation of coal, of planets, accretion, geological phenomenon ...
I mix organic, mineral, the elements and various displays of these elements.
I eliminate to the maximum everything that humanity has added to the world, all the changes introduced, everything which is artificial.
My work tends to connect the world to beings and things, to form a whole, an entirety.

Self-taught painter

I am sensitive to the work of Jean Miotte, for example. But to go further, I feel some affinities with Caspard David Friedrich and Caravaggio. I admire in him the power expressed in chiaroscuro, in dialogue and the struggle between darkness and light.
