"With my art, I want to inspire people to take their future into their own hands and really tap into the potential that lies within them."
Artist Statement
Honest, real and blunt.
Why pretend to be someone else when you can be yourself?
In order to achieve the highest possible level of satisfaction in life, it is essential to constantly develop your potential and to be able to deal intensively with yourself. Always set yourself new goals and work to achieve them. With my art, I am constantly defining new goals for myself and can constantly unfold my potential anew. It should encourage you to accept yourself, to leave your comfort zone now and then, but also to allow yourself breaks again and again, to take a deep breath and to experience peace.
My art visualizes this dynamic, flowing or even wave-like movement, in which one is on the way towards the goal. Working with a lot of liquid, the layering of colors or structure gives my works special depth. These allow the viewer to dive in and find themselves.
In my artistic process I take my current feelings, its energies and the color tones and let myself be guided by my intuition with the help of relaxing music. This process offers me personally a lot of time for reflection to think about myself and my self-realization. I wish that humanity would deal more with itself, because only in this way can one be true to oneself and dedicate oneself to honest and self-determined goals.
"I wish for a world in which all people achieve the goals they set for themselves and thereby gain more satisfaction in life."
About the artist
Céline Frericks, born in 1996 in the Netherlands and since 2000 at home in the capital of Switzerland. Already after the start of her career as an artist, she has achieved very rapid success, proves her artistic potential and really lives out her passion.
Due to the increasing stress, high demands and many negative external influences in her job as a kindergarten teacher, she first started looking for ways to find peace. The given structures of the system and the increasing burden made her lose the view forward and prevented her from self-realization. Although she is passionate about her profession, she lacked opportunities for development and growth in her everyday work. For this reason she broke out of these structures, set herself new goals and so came the impulse to paint whereby she found herself again. This artistic process helped her to find more variety, balance and inner equilibrium, which had previously been forgotten. Meanwhile, feelings and thoughts could be ordered and processed. She decided to follow the path of passion. This urge for self-realization, the confrontation with itself is constant content of her art.
