Born in Brussels, Ethel studied at the ERG (School of Graphic Research) for five years, obtaining her Master in Painting in 2021. Inspired by the women around her, the figures she creates are nourished by classic feminine references with highly contemporary narrative elements.

Through portraits of women with deconstructed body proportions — freed from the mandates of beauty we know — she recreates dreamlike scenes to speak about the intimate and the universal. Her characters appear as glorious women, bearing witness to unfailing sisterhood and joy, so much joy.
