If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?

Painting

I am...

I chose to paint nudes because the body is a carnal landscape with a powerful emotional impact. My creation process results from the relationship I develop with the model. The emotion passes through th representaitonj of the flesh and of the eyes. he model is never an object.

About my artwork

An image which alights on paper is the answer to the echoes. Shapes that claim their condition as women impose their differences, antithetical to what is fashionable. Lipszyc reconstructs women not as objects but as destiny with hypnotic fascination for flesh. It is living matter which thinks the urgency of an irreversible time, increased by its finiteness. Leaping from the repressed unconscious, the swift movement of the brush signifies the energy of the act of fusion, and the sensuous interlacing of the oil pastel enhances the palette, free of chromatic overload. This work is first of all exchange: gift of the self, dialogue to root out of pain a possible and finally accessible elsewhere A face, the touching small of the back, or the unashamed arch of a buttock emerge. Lipszyc then stops and contemplates the caricatural distance of the drawing, the bark of modesty she dresses the model in.
