Born in Switzerland to a German mother and a Catalan father, and graduating in 1995 from the Lausanne Cantonal School of Art - ECAL, Elisabeth Llach works around the representation of the feminine, drawing her inspiration from both popular culture and art history.
Inspired by smooth images from magazines, photographs found on the internet or art reproductions, his paintings and drawings depict human comedy in the plural feminine, between violence and seduction, desire and disappointment.
Her works evoke women who are dominant and vulnerable, elegant and tormented, cruel and tortured, a work amplified further by the choice of often mysterious titles - Don't worry, Everything will be fine, Darling doll, Himmelarschundzwirn - which always suggest multiple readings.
Elisabeth Llach lives and works between La Russille and Lausanne (Switzerland).
