About

Ophelia Buchelin (born 1995) is an autodidact French born, Swiss based painter.
Her practice spans across various mediums, with her main body of work being
medium to large abstract oil/mixed-media paintings. Often experimental and
playful, her practice involves mark-making through an intuitive process until
harmonious results are achieved. Ophelia’s works are commentaries and
interpretations of her surroundings and feelings, and through them, she attempts
to awaken an emotion in the viewer while simultaneously allowing space for
interpretation.
Recently, the artist has been moving away from the traditional canvas to
experiment with different materials such as fabrics. She is currently interested in
unstructuring paintings and finding abstraction in unusual manners
