Estelle is a self-taught artist born in Switzerland in 1994.
Obsessed with drawing her own characters and comics as a child, her interest in art gradually evolved into a self-therapeutic way of processing inner conflict and turmoil. She uses drawing as a means of exploring emotions she cannot express in her daily life, releasing them onto paper or canvas as a form of relief for a deeply introverted persona.
Her work explores themes of beauty, decay, trans themes of gender dysphoria and alienation towards oneself or ones surroundings. It is often focused on the idea of opposites forming a union and visual metaphors.
Though heavily inspired by art nouveau, horror manga, occult symbolism, and the absurdity of classic cartoons, there are hardly any things that don‘t spawn new, weird ideas in her mind.
Although she has worked with acrylic paint, collage and digital media before, her current pieces are predominantly hand-drawn using black ink on paper, often accompanied by short poems or cryptic fragments of text.
While she has created artwork for bands in the past, Bizart is the first time she public displays her personal work.
