A little more about Corine Ko...

Corine Ko, originally from Paris, has worked and lived in the Marseille region since 1998. After studying literature, Corine combined her passion for painting and the world of childhood by moving towards specialised animation. Her paintings suggest a subtle invitation to share what makes us human. By creating places of meditation and contemplation, the viewer is invited to walk, rest and dream as the cathartic experience soothes and nourishes.

Corine paints with very diluted acrylic and ink, using various materials to create her identifiable style, all contributing to the “timeless and sometimes accidental journey”. The material never seems under control, nor locked in a definitive form.

In 2002 she founded the association Aux Arts Etc organising creative workshops for children and adults with disabilities.
