Corinne Pirault

A free, radiant, and unclassifiable artist, Corinne Pirault is one of those creators who leave a lasting impression. Her encounter with painting in 2015, during a stay in Nicaragua with an artist friend, profoundly changed her path. Since then, this passionate self-taught artist has established herself with a colorful, expressive, and luminous style, nourished by multiple influences: Frida Kahlo, Niki de Saint Phalle, and the pictorial traditions of Haiti, the Caribbean, and the Congo.

But Corinne Pirault’s art goes beyond aesthetics. Her works carry powerful messages. She addresses themes such as women’s condition, environmental issues, and the fragility of life itself. Her series on the Mediterranean reflects her deep commitment to the sea and its marine ecosystems, whose threatened beauty both moves and inspires her.

Her compositions overflow with vitality: shimmering tones, defined outlines, vivid blocks of color, and strong contrasts. Corinne Pirault masters acrylic with ease, bringing life to every canvas. She paints as one tells a story — inspired by an article, a street scene, or a striking event — transforming it through a style she herself calls “happy.”

Her style, seemingly joyful and almost childlike, conceals a genuine emotional depth. It recalls Picasso’s words: “It took me a lifetime to learn how to draw like a child.” In Corinne Pirault’s work, this innocence intertwines with a sharp awareness of the world and its challenges. She creates to awaken, to question, and to share.

Since 2017, she has exhibited regularly in France and abroad: Art Capital, the Biennale Art Singulier et Innovant Drôme-Isère, Carpentras, the International Contemporary Art Fair of Marseille, and the Saint-Victor Abbey, among others. She also takes part in numerous collective projects, school workshops, and artistic and environmental awareness initiatives.

Corinne Pirault believes in the power of sharing — in art as a vehicle for energy and transmission. She aims to develop partnerships with local authorities and companies, and to strengthen her commitment to children, so that painting may also become a tool for awareness, wonder, and engagement.

 

TESTIMONIALS

Corinne Pirault stands as a sentinel of her time. Since the very beginning in 2015, her painting has carried within it all the themes that still define her work today: the protection of oceans and marine life, the causes of climate disruption, and the pollutions that suffocate the living world. Her true impact lies in her ability to raise the alarm — in color. There’s no catastrophism in her art, but rather a vibrant palette of bold, blazing tones that leaves room for hope. Hope that gently whispers: we can still act.

Murielle Leroy

"Blue... Yellow... Red" — the primary colors take center stage in Corinne Pirault’s art, through which she expresses her joys, her fears, her battles. When I gaze at one of her paintings, I’m drawn back into the world of childhood, of memories… of the beauty of the world. In short, it moves me the way a child might be moved by the illustration of a fairy tale. Corinne Pirault’s art is, above all, a Story.

Véronique Thomas

Corinne Pirault’s work is, above all, a journey through color. I’m especially drawn to the energy her pieces radiate. What I truly appreciate in her art is its meaning — deeply committed, yet never moralizing.
