The Discerner Michelle Hold Feelings, emotions and the scarcity of beauty in current times inspire Michelle Hold to paint, creating abstract works which hold a special connection with the viewer, a personal moment frozen in time where all is possible. Time spent to study architecture has influenced her construction methods, creating images with multiple layering while her experience in the textile industry has formed her equilibrated use of color. Her paintings which vary in size and style are created with ‘dance like’ gestures. They are dramatic yet peaceful, loud and vibrant with space for quiet contemplation. They are the artists visual representation of the eternal energy of the universe. Born in Germany, Michelle lived long periods of time in Paris, New York, Hong Kong, London, now she is based in Italy, close to Milan. She has exhibited solo shows throughout Europe and China , participated in group shows worldwide and in international art fairs in Berlin, Milan, Miami, Athens, Vilnius. “Untangling the chains” - £3150 Pigments and acrylics on canvas 120 x 120cm Available to view at the Discerner’s Residence in Mayfair “Challenge” - £3325 Pigments and acrylics on canvas 120 x 120cm T: [phone] E: [email protected] W: michellehold.com For all enquiries, please contact Michelle or Celine at [email protected] or 020 7491 9925 www.thediscer ne r . c om 15
