Flo Dinis Klopries is a female interdisciplinary contemporary artist born in Porto, Portugal, and currently living and working at the french/german border. Her academic and artistic training spans multiple disciplines, including fine arts, philology, and music - reflecting her relentless pursuit of knowledge and self expression- each leaving an indelible mark on her creative output.

Her foundational studies in classic painting techniques and her later immersion in modern and abstract art practices laid the groundwork for her stylistic versatility. Under the tutelage of several renowned visual artists she acquired the discipline and precision associated with old master techniques, while also embracing the experimental spirit that defines contemporary art.

This duality is a hallmark of her work, allowing her to traverse a spectrum of styles and themes with remarkable fluidity. Her dynamic oeuvre, at once enigmatic and profoundly resonant, is situated between figuration and abstraction – blurring the line between both but emphasizing abstraction over representation – wants to build a bridge between the inherited past, her subjective vision of the present and her own exploration of what might be the future.

The influence of her mentors from the Moscow Art Academy (now living in France!) is evident in her technical precision, while her abstract explorations owe much to her engagement with modernistic aesthetics. She is an artist who does not shy away from complexity, embracing it as a necessary aspect of both creation and existence. Her work invites viewers into a space of reflection, where the tactile and the transcendental converge, and it is as much about emotion as it is about form - both the product of her spontaneous feelings and emotions and the philosophical reflections of her intellect.

Her preferred subjects are the timeless exploration of the human condition between the universal and the personal, the abstract and the concrete, but also i.e. the dipicting of the fleeting beauty of natural spaces aiming to underline their eternal qualities. Dinis Klopries art is deeply informed by her sense of place. Her landscapes are not mere representations but emotional cartographies, mapping the interplay of internal and external worlds. Nature serves as both a mirror and a catalyst for human emotion.

Flo Dinis Klopries is not content to simply depict the world. She seeks to capture its essence, to distill its fleeting beauty into something eternal. Her exploration of themes like fragility, resilience and the passage of time resonates deeply in our contemporary moment offering a space for reflection and renewal where the tactile and the transcendental converge.

In a world increasingly dominated by spectacle and immediacy, Dinis Klopries´art stands as a counterpoint. It reminds us of the enduring power of painting as a medium for profound expression. Her career is marked by regular exhibitions in Paris participating in prestigious international salons such as Art Capital/Salon des Artistes Francais, the Salon d´Automne ou le Salon des Beaux-Arts de la Société National des Beaux-Arts,... These venues, stepped in history provide the perfect context for her artwork.
