Isabelle Rozot's world is a place out of time, firmly anchored in a mythical 20s and 30s, populated with glamorous people in chic settings vaguely wondering at certain moments of the day whether they might not really exist at all, and actually not that bothered by it. They are sufficient unto themselves, and to us, who know that their sole purpose is to give us pleasure. In which endeavor, though of the leisured class, they succeed mightily.
The canvas is 35" x 45 3/4", and the frame is 41" x 51 3/4".
Isabelle Rozot was born in 1972, in Nancy in France. She studied painting at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg and then came to London to study at Chelsea School of Art.
Isabelle lived and painted in Paris, in her apartment near the Palais Royal, until she moved to Granville, still surrounded by stuffed spiders and rickety Napoleonic furniture. Antiques, curiosity shops, social life and late 19th century literature provide the inspiration for her work. Like the characters in a Scott Fitzgerald novel the languid inhabitants of her paintings subtly convey the shadowy side of an idle existence.
Isabelle has undertaken many commissioned paintings for private individuals and companies, and recently undertook a commission for a dining room in Paris and a villa on the French Riviera. She shows regularly in Paris, Tokyo, Beirut and London. Isabelle exhibits exclusively with Portal Painters in London at The London Art Fair in January, The Affordable Art Fair in Battersea in March and at The British Art Fair at The Saatchi Gallery in September.
She is currently represented at the Hay Hill Gallery in London.
