The Story of Malouca Metthe Agerbo

Malouca Metthe Agerbo Thomassen

Malouca Metthe has since her early childhood always loved to draw horses and princesses which has followed her throughout her teenage years and adulthood. But as we all know, life has a way of changing us, which happened to Malouca Metthe in 2001, when she opened Atelie-Agerbo. Since the opening of the atelier, she has received multiple international awards for her art.

Style of art

Her art style was in the early stages before 2001, but changed afterwards, as she moved from her hometown Rønnede to Esbjerg. She had been given a second chance and began her journey as an artist at the local school in her new city. This led her to an art school in Sønderborg where she found her somewhat true self and personal style of expression. After a year at this school she was given the opportunity to begin at Aarhus Fine Art Academy, where she truly found herself as the artist she is today. It was at this Academy that she received her first invitation to an international Biennale in Poland. Since the initial invitation, she has been invited on several occasions.

Historien om Malouca Metthe Agerbo

Siden sin tidlige barndom har Malouca Metthe altid elsket at tegne heste og prinsesser, hvilket har fulgt hende gennem hendes teenageår og voksenliv. Men som vi alle ved, har livet en måde at ændre os på, hvilket skete for Malouca Metthe i 2001, da hun åbnede Atelie Agerbo. Siden åbningen af atelieret har hun modtaget adskillige internationale priser for sin kunst.

Kunststil

Hendes kunststil var i de tidlige stadier før 2001, men ændrede sig efterfølgende, da hun flyttede fra sin hjemby Rønnede til Esbjerg. Hun fik en ny chance, og begyndte sin rejse som kunstner på den lokale skole i sin nye by. Dette førte hende til en kunstskole i Sønderborg, hvor hun fandt sit sande jeg og personlige udtryksform. Efter et år på denne skole fik hun muligheden for at begynde på Aarhus Kunstakademi, hvor hun for alvor fandt sig selv som den kunstner, hun er i dag. Det var på dette akademi, at hun modtog sin første invitation til en international biennale i Polen. Siden den første invitation er hun blevet inviteret flere gange.

Stories in artworks

When it comes to her artwork, Metthe gives some of her soul every time. She is in touch with her inner self, and this is always expressed in her works of art. Her style and painting technique differs from other artists as she mixes different art genres. This makes her art unique and a one of a kind. She tells Fairy Tales through her works without using words. She lets the image speak for itself so that the story of the artwork can shine through. With a broad range of expertise, she is a talented painter with her own sense of style. This is also a gift she wishes to pass on to other art lovers, which is why she holds painting courses in her own studio.

Fortællinger i  kunstværker

Når det kommer til hendes kunstværker, giver Metthe lidt af sin sjæl hver gang. Hun er i kontakt med sit indre jeg, og dette kommer altid til udtryk i hendes kunstværker. Hendes stil og maleteknik adskiller sig fra andre kunstnere, da hun blander forskellige kunstgenrer. Dette gør hendes kunst unik og enestående. Hun fortæller eventyr gennem sine værker uden at bruge ord. Hun lader billedet tale for sig selv, så kunstværkets historie kan træde frem. Med en bred vifte af ekspertise er hun en talentfuld maler med sin egen stil. Dette er også en gave, hun ønsker at videregive til andre kunstelskere, hvorfor hun afholder malekurser i sit eget atelier.
