Experience and Recognition

Section 01

Interior Design

Before devoting myself entirely to art, I built significant international experience in interior design, developing projects for the luxury, hospitality and high-end retail sectors. I worked as lead designer at Crocus City Mall in Moscow, where I designed spaces including the Franck Muller Café, Arthur's Spa Hotel and the Champagne Drappier boutique.

Fashion & Boutique

I worked as a visual merchandiser in high-traffic commercial spaces, curating window displays and installations from concept through to final realisation for brands including Céline, Lanvin, Iceberg, Ungaro, Byblos, Vicini and Artioli. A visual education built on detail and composition — one I still find today in every piece I make.

What makes Soul Portrait so unique is Kariné's extraordinary empathy. She managed to sense and translate onto canvas the most intimate nuances of my heart, with delicacy and intuition. This isn't just painting — it's pure energy turned into art. My Soul Portrait isn't simply a work of art: it's a vibrant mirror of my personality. Every day its colours welcome me and remind me of my own inner richness. It's a profound connection, an invisible bridge between my essence and the artist's sensitivity.

Franca, Paris – Soul Portrait Project

A true artist can see what remains hidden to everyone else. Through her Soul Portrait, Kariné was able to represent me with real authenticity, turning emotion and inner nuance into colour and movement. To look at this work is to truly recognise yourself. If you want an artist to put your soul on canvas, trust Kariné's talent.

Valentina, Rome – Soul Portrait Project

My Sphere captivated me from the very first moment. It isn't just an art object — it's a constant source of emotion. The plays of light radiating from its centre bring it to life, letting it enter into dialogue with both space and time. The transparencies and reflections create an immersive, three-dimensional effect. It's a contemporary piece that unites aesthetics and awareness, turning reclaimed materials into a powerful, surprising visual experience.
