Artist Biography / Artist Statement:

Fangyou Belleli
Paris-based painter of presence, gesture, and metamorphosis

Fangyou Belleli paints time—not its passage, but its pulse. Known for her large-scale portraits and nude studies painted live in 5 to 20 minutes, she works in oil on translucent tracing paper, capturing presence as it flickers and fades. Each stroke is a transmission—breath, energy, light.

Rooted in ancient notions of time, her practice merges mastery with surrender: a ritual of becoming rather than depiction. The figures she paints seem to appear and disappear as you move—ephemeral, vibrating, alive.

She does not paint what she sees.
She paints what is about to vanish.

“To paint is to disappear into the breath of another—until time folds, and only presence remains.” — Fangyou Belleli
