Ethel Coppieters was born in Brussels in 1996. She studied at ERG for 5 years, graduating in 2021 with a master’s degree in painting. She paints portraits of women full of contradictory evocations and mixed feelings. Inspired by the women of her generation and her everyday life, she creates dreamlike scenes. The figures created by Coppieters are nourished by classical feminine references as well as contemporary narrative elements. These timeless canvases speak of the intimate and the universal, in portraits of women whose proportions are deconstructed and freed from the familiar injunctions of beauty. Her work is marked by her parallel practice of murals and graffiti. Known by her stage name Soaz, her work revolves around the representation of women in portraits and compositions that blend bodies and faces. The confrontation of shapes and colours is part of her artistic exploration. Ethel Coppieters creates a new imagination in public spaces by imposing the existence of her frescoes.
