French artist-painter, Elka Leonard develops a visual approach halfway between surrealism and pop art. She frees herself from societal constraints and addresses all the themes that affect her as a woman. From domination to emancipation, it is also her journey as a woman, the expression of her own identity, of a unique style. Her painting, made of a depth of memory, mixes with great dexterity the extraordinary and the banal, scholarly and popular history, myths and philosophical ideals. From anecdotes to references, from diversion to parody, she dialogues with overlapping eras. The world appears like a dream from which to draw new harmony. She slips into her artworks a multitude of details. These small, discreet, unusual elements, constitute a gateway to penetrate the heart of her art.
