Laina Hadengue, born in 1962 in Valencia, lives and works in Toulouse.
The artist's niece Sebastien Hadengue, the last painter revealed by the art dealer Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler.
For a great originality in the work of Laina Hadengue growing so in an environment very prolific artist, whose uncle, grandfather and great grandfather were painters.
Being particularly Chazotte Yvan (the fine teacher - Arts in Paris and first prize of Rome) it decides to pass on his knowledge.
After a course more figurative until 1999, she turns up the numbers to move towards pure abstraction.
"A major technical aspect of my work consists of working on matter and transparency. I am gradually introducing plastics, collage, Plexiglas and, more recently, various manufactured objects such as oilcloth, appropriated everyday objects, plastic or collectors' toys, newspapers, etc. This work is somewhat related to the French artistic movement 'Art Modeste' launched by the artist Hervé Di Rosa. "… 'art modeste' highlights the most banal, everyday things by looking at them in a way that is no longer utilitarian but full of affection thanks to assemblies, scene-settings and the creation of environments that give them a soul."
These incorporations allow quasi-sculptural volume work with the canvas, with a mingling of painting and transparent screens that diffract light in various ways.
They belong to the world of childhood or the adult, these inclusions allow a working volume of the canvas,
almost sculptural, mixing paint and screen transparent diffracting light of different ways, participating in the transfiguration of everyday objects.
The artist identifies a new aesthetic and a contemporary form of language free from the constraints of proprietary paint.
