Aïcha Khorchid 1981

Lives in Mallorca. Works in Mallorca.

Represented by:

GNYP Gallery

Aïcha Khorchid (French, born 1981 in Pakistan) currently lives and works in Mallorca. Her paintings, always on large wooden panels, address Khorchid’s multilayered life story that forms a central point of reference in her work. Her oeuvre is about human relationships and their complexity. In this exhibition Khorchid artistically dissects her difficult childhood in the French foster family in Normandy, presenting to us its emotionally charged daily life and people that inhabited that world. Her powerful seemingly naive visual language stresses intricacy of pain and happiness, and makes her work a vehicle to think about human condition. Khorchid’s paintings are currently featured in the group exhibition “The Beauty of Diversity” at the Albertina Modern Museum in Vienna.

Colourful memories in the life journey of Aïcha Khorchid on canvas

The mind works in mysterious ways. It's been almost 30 years since Algerian singer Khaled released his love song about Aïcha. Undoubtedly, his heart belonged to another, for Aïcha Khorchid was only 15 at the time. She has now grown into an artist who is currently participating in the group exhibition The Beauty of Diversity at the Albertina Modern Museum in Vienna. For those who would like to admire the artist's work in serene surroundings, there is no need not travel far because the exhibition Le Monde d'Aïcha is currently on view at the GNYP Gallery in Antwerp.
