Maëlys Chay

With her palette of warm tones, her delicately retro touch and her textures reminiscent of vintage photographs , Maëlys Chay invites us to see beauty in everyday scenes. The grain, composition and light work of her illustrations stem from her previous work as a photographer passionate about film. Her sense of detail can be seen in architectural elements, interior decoration and in the clothing of her characters. The softness of the gaze that Maëlys brings to everything is distilled in the cozy life scenes that she represents, with characters evolving in warm atmospheres, surrounded by books, plants or the staging of still lifes composed of objects that are dear to her.
