About the Item
This contemporary abstract expressionist still life painting, created by French artist Natalya Mougenot, is part of her ongoing still life series that celebrates the beauty of everyday simplicity and the importance of cherishing ordinary moments.
At the heart of this vibrant composition is a bold depiction of fruits — a pear and three apples arranged in a bowl — rendered with expressive, textured brushstrokes and a rich, dynamic color palette. Dominated by earthy browns, deep reds, and vivid blues, the artwork radiates energy and emotion. The background swirls with hues of turquoise and cobalt, creating a striking contrast that brings the fruit to the forefront with a luminous presence. Mougenot's masterful use of light and shadow lends the composition depth and warmth, inviting viewers to experience the tactile quality of the paint and the emotional resonance of the subject.
Natalya Mougenot is known for developing a distinctive artistic language that blends elements of Abstract Expressionism, Impressionism, Art Naïf, and Art Brut. Her painting style reflects an intuitive and instinctive approach, emphasizing raw emotion and unfiltered perception.
In addition to painting, Natalya is also a photographer. Her photographic work, also available on this platform, mirrors her painterly sensibility — offering intimate glimpses into the world around her. Through both mediums, she maintains a coherent vision grounded in three guiding values: authenticity, sincerity, and honesty. For Natalya, authenticity is paramount. She believes that viewers can inherently sense what is real, and she strives to create art that is true — art that speaks from the heart and remains faithful to her personal experience.

Natalya Mougenot id a french artist living in France for more than 20 years. She was born and grew up in Kazakhstan, the country known for its spacious steppes. She arrived in France 2003. Since that moment she loves her adoptive country. She started painting in 2017 and used it as a therapeutic and emotional release during times of crisis. She incorporates this therapeutic approach in her artistic creative process till now. In her artistic practice she refers to the terms of metamodernism, which proposes to look at the world from the position of the inner adult. As an artist and as a woman she translates the experience of her personal search for balance based on harmony between mind, soul and body. This balance, in her opinion, is the pillar for the inner adult. Important components of her work are authenticity, soulfulness, sincerity, emotionality and honesty. She immerses the objects and the characters in the world where there is no falsity, rudeness, loneliness and indifference. She works rapidly and is constantly sensitive to the details. Her artistic process is a fine balance between a pre-meditation and spontantainty which helps her to create her expressive atmospheric artworks with a modern touch of impressionism by cultivating a naive art approach. Natalya manipulates different mediums without a preconceived plan since she is guided by what she wants to express at the moment by embracing the quality of my materials. She does not deny that her artworks reflect her intuitive approach and her love for vibrant colors which represent her who she is. Natalya says she is never able to create the same piece more than once. Sometimes she paints from photos or images. Sometimes she paints from memory. She tells to herself : "Just be yourself when you create ".
