MarieEve Proteau is a Canadian painter based in Austria, known for dreamy, surreal portraits of women whose faces and bodies are partially hidden by plants, hair, veils or patterned shadows. After earlier experiments painting on unconventional supports like retro TV sets, she now focuses on acrylic on canvas and wood panels, using soft gradients, tropical foliage, snakes, tattoos and reflections to explore identity, vulnerability and the parts of ourselves we conceal.
