Nonoss (Morgane Parmentier) doesn’t try to conceal the flaw, but rather to sublimate it.
Her female portraits and abstract artworks do not merely depict an external reality: they reveal psychological cracks: what lies beneath the surface without being immediately perceptible.
Precise in the light, chaotic in the shadow: two opposing gestures on the same canvas, like two truths that coexist without resolving one another.
Morgane Parmentier is represented by Art Trope Gallery

The French contemporary artist
Former student of fine arts in Troyes, France, Morgane Parmentier (Nonoss) develops a practice rooted in experimentation, combining acrylic painting, texture and gold leaf.
Her work explores the human psyche, identity, vulnerability and resilience. Through portraits and abstract works, she brings to light what is usually hidden: inner fragilities, fractures, emotions and the traces left by experience.
Her paintings are built around a constant tension between opposites: light and shadow, precision and chaos, figuration and abstraction, fragility and strength. A restrained palette of blues, black and beige, punctuated by gold, reinforces this dialogue.
Her works have been featured in several exhibitions in France, including the Salon d’Automne of the Société des Beaux-Arts in Boulogne-Billancourt (Paris), where she received the Young Talent Award from the magazine Univers des Arts in 2023.
