Axelle Kieffer
Savannah, GA
Born and raised in France, Axelle currently lives and works in Savannah, GA.
Her artistic process began as a child while watching her grandfather painting. This experience, with the smell of turpentine forever anchored in her genes, Axelle started to draw and experiment with different artistic medias.
After obtaining a bachelor's degree in comparative literature from the University of Strasbourg, Axelle began her postgraduate work studying the poems Logogrammes by Christian Dotremont, founder of the CoBrA art movement. This research brought her closer to the visual art world, and reawakened her artistic passion. She left academia behind and embraced the career of an artist.
Since moving to the US in 2009, I started wandering around at the flea markets and collecting old illustration medical books mainly, and I ended up collecting all kinds of books, vintage photos. I started to shy away from painting (lack of space, lack of supply) and to focus on paper work and collages.
