Amélie

French-Italian artist based in Rome, self-taught and proudly class of ’02.

She always says, “I paint better than I speak,” and honestly, we’re grateful for that — considering she effortlessly mixes Italian, French, and English into a linguistic smoothie every time she opens her mouth. Her holy trinity consists of Van Gogh, Klimt, and Hilma af Klint, whom she invokes with the devotion of someone scrolling through an art-history meme page.

She also holds a bachelor’s degree in Art History, so yes — she actually knows what she’s doing (despite what her multilingual word salad might suggest).
