about sophie basso
Born in Geneva in 1969, Sophie Basso’s life has always been marked by a passion for automobiles
and photography. A lawyer specialising in finance, in 2005 she permanently relinquished her briefcase
for her camera and her brushes to fully devote herself to her artistic and photographic aspirations. The adage
“the law leads to everything” has found a rededication here.
Apart from her passion for the male dominated environment of the automobile and the motorcycle,
she is also fascinated by the world of contemporary art and of cartoon strips. These inspire her to express
her views as an artist, by artistic impressions, including onto canvas, using mixed media, such as acrylic paint,
pastel pencils, inks and textured gel. Sophie Basso fits into the scattered movement derived from the pop art,
the neo pop.
Her style and specific art, derived from her immersion in the digital age, combine different visual sources
into a colourful and personal composition, a skilful blend of new technologies and more traditional methods.
After publishing two books of automotive photographs and working mainly
under terms of reference for eight years, particularly at various European
race circuits, Sophie Basso felt the need to devote herself entirely
to much more personal achievements.
Through her works, Sophie Basso seeks to catch our attention
to generate a direct and immediate interaction with her characters.
She emphasises the distortions of the mind as well as the
many possible interpretations of the same thing. Thereafter
it is up to each to derive the meaning that he or she wishes
to give to her works which speak directly to our own emotions.

à propos de sophie basso
Née en 1969 à Genève, la vie de Sophie Basso a toujours été marquée par la passion pour l’automobile
et la photographie. Avocate spécialisée dans le domaine financier, elle a définitivement lâché son porte-document
en 2005 pour son appareil photo et ses pinceaux afin de se consacrer pleinement à ses aspirations artistiques
et photographiques. L’adage « le droit mène à tout» a trouvé une nouvelle consécration ici.
Outre, son engouement pour l’environnement plutôt masculin de l’automobile et de la moto, elle est également
fascinée par l’univers de l’art contemporain et de la bande dessinée. Ceux-ci l’inspirent afin d’exprimer
ses vues d’artiste par des impressions artistiques, notamment sur toile, utilisant des techniques mixtes,
tels que la peinture acrylique, les pastels, les encres et les gels. Sophie Basso s’inscrit dans le mouvement épars issu
du pop art, le néo pop.
Sa technique et son style particuliers, issus de son immersion dans l’ère du numérique, allient différentes
sources visuelles en une composition colorée et personnelle, mélange habile entre les nouvelles technologies
et des méthodes plus classiques.
Après avoir publié deux livres de photos automobiles et oeuvré principalement
sur mandat pendant huit ans, notamment sur les différents circuits de course
européens, Sophie Basso a éprouvé le besoin de se vouer entièrement
à des réalisations beaucoup plus personnelles.
A travers ses oeuvres, Sophie Basso cherche à intercepter notre regard
afin de susciter une interaction directe et immédiate avec ses personnages.
Elle privilégie les déformations de l’esprit ainsi que les multiples interprétations
possibles d’une même chose. A chacun ensuite de faire sien le sens qu’il a bien
voulu donner à ses oeuvres qui s’adressent directement à nos propres émotions.
